Plus memory maps (to device/HW/etc). It would then be possible add examples of code that cannot be done without pointers. For example, in the DOS era, video memory was a fixed location that were written with pointers. Today OS gives us mapped memory for peripherals and HW that is accessed using pointers.
I consider myself as an enthusiast in learning new things everyday, about our history and future as well as the present. My interests: Ancient History, Comparative Religion, Science and Tech, C++
It would be good to list the other kinds of memories, for example:

good one, but will the beginners would get overwhelmed by peripherals and HW ?
