Deep Sea Fishes

I don't know why I find this site so amusing. Some of the ugliest, most expressionistic creatures I've ever seen, can't believe we're sharing the same planet! I look forward to seeing the new IMAX Volcanoes of the Deep Sea very soon -- better than the new Matrix! I predict that there will be a new fad, like there was in the early 20th century for African masks and other forms of neo-Orientalism, based on these photographs and others like them -- you heard it here first.

Since the Heap has no definite rules as to where it will create space for you, there must be some way of figuring out where your new space is. And the answer is, simply enough, addressing. When you create new space in the heap to hold your data, you get back an address that tells you where your new space is, so your bits can move in. This address is called a Pointer, and it's really just a hexadecimal number that points to a location in the heap. Since it's really just a number, it can be stored quite nicely into a variable.
