What exactly bothers you? A lot of explanation is already given in the course and respecitve comments. https://www.sololearn.com/learn/C/2933/ Short: A pointer is variable, which holds the address of another variable. For example int x = 3; \\ stored at memory location x034 for example int* p = &x; \\ & gets the refernce = address of x, stored in p \\ p points to x of type int \\ the address of p itself is different again This is useful to get at the starting point of an array for example, which is stored consecutively in memory.
