Pointer basics

Go into tehpc/basics/. Consider the following two codes:

1. bsc_pointers_1.cpp
2. bsc_pointers_2.cpp

Compile them and run them with

1. going into the tehpc/build/ folder (possibly in another terminal)
2. compile with the following command: g++ -Werror -Wpedantic -g -o bsc_pointers_X ../basics/bsc_pointers_X.cpp where X is 1 or 2.
3. run code with ./bsc_pointers_X (when you run bsc_pointers_2, open another terminal and type top -- observe)

Analyze what these codes do and why they do this.
