Why pointer is callded jewel of c language?

a pointer is a derived data type in c. pointers are undoubtedly one of the most distinct and exciting features of c language.it has added power and flexibility to the language. *pointers are more efficient in handling arrays and tables. *pointer can be used to support dynamic memory management. *pointers reduce length and complexity of programs. *increase the execution speed and thus reduce the program execution time. by following character's real power of c lies in proper use of pointers. pointer is called the jewel of c-language.

Why does not use pointer in java?

You do not use pointers in Java because the language designers decided to abstract memory management to a higher level in Java than in C. The reason for this is that it is easy to make mistakes using pointers and other lower level memory management techniques. These mistakes can lead to bugs. hard to read code, memory leaks that waste system resources, and security issues. Instead for the most part Java takes care of memory management for the user who can instead specify behavior though the object oriented techniques that are safer and easier to understand. The downside is that the programmers lose some control and flexibility in using memory. Also, programs using Java take a small performance hit in some cases because of the extra work Java has to do to manage memory itself. They are, however in Java they are called references.

Why you are not using pointers in java?

Pointers is a very powerful feature that is available in the C programming language but at the same time it is very confusing and many of the issues that arise out of C programs is because of incorrect or inappropriate usage of pointers. Hence the creators of Java language opted to exclude the pointers feature and create Java as a language where the programmer cannot access the native memory area and the memory accessing is left to the system to be taken care of.
