Hey Sree Kov
When we talk about the strength of pointers it is also very important to understand the cons of pointers. We very well know the pointers directly allow us to manipulate values in memory locations. And can also address to mem-locations belonging to other programs. This is serious problem when it comes to security.
If this strength then it is lost in
java.
Whereas java language does maintain pointers internally but the programmer is not allowed with the same privilege. Its the VM through which the calls are made to the H/w hence optimising the need for security at a very high level.
