avoid ambiguity, I also propose moving Pointer (computing) to Pointer (programming)Pointer (computer programming). -- Trevj (talk) 10:55, 1 November 2011...

discuss pointer arithmetic, not basic pointer usage -- that belongs elsewhere, like in the pointer article, or perhaps a Wikibook on basic C programming techniques...

a programming technique that maximizes the use of immutable objects and allows for a simple design by contract. It applies in several programming languages...

generic programming to make function pointer-like objects which can be used very effectively for callbacks. I believe the point was that function pointers are...

example, I envision a section on programming language approaches to addressing the issue with a subsection for each programming language discussed. Another...

"Program Counter." I think "Instruction Pointer" is a non-standard misnomer. Whenever I see "IP" in a computer-related context I think of "Internet Protocol"...

delete operator on a pointer to it, you are not necessarily sure what type the object is; because you might be using a pointer to a base class. So to...

saying "operator new" should never be assigned to a raw pointer (unless you're designing a smart-pointer class, of course).Sebastian Garth (talk) 22:37, 4 May...

should be considered in creating examples of reflection in programming languages. Few programs would ever use eval, and none would use it to hack around...

both a symbol and a list. It is not, contra the introduction to the Null pointer, an invalid object, it is the empty list (as well as the equivalent of...

exist but represent different things. Because of polymorphism, a this pointer can change; however, self retains reference to the current class so static...

a pointer" is true for one sense of "variable", but the statement "the variable-name exists outside of its scope, and can be accessed via a pointer" would...

January 2006 (UTC) I have removed "The C programming language introduced the pointer ..." Pointers in programming languages are at least as old as ALGOL...
