Best Answer

The English Pointer was developed to be what is called a "gun dog". It's used to hunt and catch rabbits and birds. It's bred to be a very graceful and athletic dog with a very alert personality.

What kind of dog is a GSP?

The German Short-haired Pointer is in the Gundog group (Sporting in America) and is a medium sized, short coated breed. The origin of the German Shorthaired Pointer is not clear, but the source of the breed seems to have been the German Bird Dog, related to the old Spanish Pointer, and various crossings with local German scent hounds and track and trail dogs. When the Germans introduced the English Pointers to lend elegance to the German Shorthaired Pointer prototype, the result was a utility dog that combined sporting virtue with clean lines, good looks and sound temperament. The GSP is friendly, intelligent, and willing to please. The first impression is that of a keen enthusiasm for work without indication of nervous or flightly character.

What is generic pointer in C?

When a variable is declared as being a pointer to type void it is known as a generic pointer. Since you cannot have a variable of type void, the pointer will not point to any data and therefore cannot be dereferenced. It is still a pointer though, to use it you just have to cast it to another kind of pointer first. Hence the term Generic pointer.
