A pointer is a memory address that points to the location of another value or data structure in memory.

It is commonly used in low-level programming languages, such as C or C++, but is not directly applied in high-level database design.

In database systems, the term “pointer” may be used internally (e.g. pointer-based joins, index pointers), but it is not a coding scheme.
