What the Heck?

[maurices5000]

Here is some syntax I keep running into
HRESULT IHTMLDocument2::get_links(IHTMLElementCollection **p);

Should i try to understand this? Why? How do i learn to understand it?

The documentation keeps speaking of pointers. I was introduced to the word in C++ 8 years ago. I have no real idea what a pointer is or its purpose.

Thanks!

Should i try to understand this? Do you need to understand this? Where do you keep running into it? Is it a part of the answer to a question you are researching?
