Encoding globally available pointers helps protect them from being exploited. The EncodePointer function obfuscates the pointer value with a secret so that it cannot be predicted by an external agent. The secret used by EncodePointer is different for each process. A pointer must be decoded before it can be used.
just know 3 things: 1  Pointer is a variable that store the address of another variable (or just any address). * 2  is used to get the value at the memory location that is stored in the pointer variable. & 3  operator gives the address of a memory location.sually what I do is represent memory as a grid, so that I can make up addresses, highlight different memory spaces and write in the cells values (or even further, their binary representations) and link the pointers in memory to the values they point at.
