why do we use pointer instead directly acessing the data?..

Answer / manish

We use the pointer instead of the because of the fast
access of the data as pointer provides direct memory access.

Also, soemtimes passing the ;large structure variable in
the function argument requires large memoy stack but by
passing the pointer to the structure inside the function
will reduce the stack size.

why do we use pointer instead directly acessing the data?..

Answer / jitendra mishra

As we know pointer shows the address of a particular variable in the memory space.and accessing variable by its name is a bit time consuming because there can have more than one variable of same name but there can not be same address for two different variables.So pointer is more accurate and quick.
