Indeed - having come from low level route, never really understood why people get so confused with them
- dhosek 5y agoI can remember writing a large Pascal program in the 80s and really wishing I had function pointers available so I could pass in a reference to a function. I look back on that as an autodidact programmer and realize that I had some vague instinctual notion of stuff that would become commonplace as OO and functional paradigms took over.
