Narrator: T-REX IN: PROGRAMMING ADVICE
T-Rex: Are you having trouble programming your computer?
T-Rex: Let me give you a few pointers!
Dromiceiomimus: Ooh, ouch. Was that a bad pun?
T-Rex: It was an... indirect reference?
Dromiceiomimus: I suspect that these are all bad puns!
T-Rex: Don't worry - they're the least significant bit of my speech. Oh ho!
Narrator: JOKES EXPLAINED:
Utahraptor: Aren't pointers programming tools, T-Rex?
T-Rex: They are!
T-Rex: They allow one to reference the address of data, instead of the data itself. It's like how knowing someone's phone number lets you get in touch with them personally! Hence the delightful "indirect reference" pun.
Utahraptor: I too think these are pretty awful.
Narrator: CONCLUSION:
T-Rex: Everyone! Program harder!!
