A HINT AT A FUTURE LESSON

Another way of getting data back from a function to the calling program is by using pointers which we will cover in the next chapter. When we get there we will find that an array is in reality a pointer to a list of values. Don't let that worry you now, it will make sense when we get there. In the meantime concentrate on arrays and understand the basics of them because when we get to the study of structures we will be able to define some pretty elaborate arrays.
