Question

I’ve never worked with a language that didn’t provide for some form of memory management, and thus managed to get by without ever really groking pointers.

I can dabble in C I guess, as a result of coding in Objective-C for a little while.

Answer 1

Hmmm, maybe it’s the single linked list.

Try it: create, populate, reverse, release a single linked list

struct node {
    int data;
    struct node *next;
};
