What are the advantages of using pointers in c?

Advantages of pointers:


1)With the use of pointers(safely) one can write compact and efficient C code.





2) sometimes it helps in hiding or providing abstraction layer between end user and programmer especially in function passed argument and function pointer...





Basically when one is using C language for Embedded Systems development for example : developing device driver, Micro controller based system design in that case one can exploit each bits and bytes of pointers because there memory and speed are


the biggest constraints.
