C list demo

Written for a friend, demonstrates pointers/list usage in C ☺.

This list implementation isn't the cleanest, but should show most relevant usage off.

The list implementation is a singly-linked list.

Notes on pointers

A pointer 'points' to a location in memory typically expressed as an address in a form such as 0xFA12F
The 'value' of a pointer is the address in memory being pointed to and stored a type associated with the allocation
A pointer can point to an arbitrary depth of other pointers, as per int** being a pointer to a pointer to a location in memory known to be of type int (integer)
The * operator shifts in towards the value stored in memory, as per *n yielding the value stored in the memory pointed to by n
The & operator shifts out towards pointing to whatever the value is, as per &n yielding a pointer to the pointer n
The -> operator is shorthand for 'dereference and element of' for pointers to struct types, as per bob->name where Person* bob is a pointer to a struct type named Person with an element of name ;; this is equivalent to (*bob).name

On Ubuntu:

$ sudo apt install build-essential gcc

$ make

$ ./a.out
