A short pointer typically refers to a pointer that occupies fewer bytes (usually 2 bytes), while a long pointer is a pointer that occupies more bytes (usually 4 or 8 bytes) to represent memory addresses in computer programming languages. Short pointers are more limited in the range of memory addresses they can access compared to long pointers.
