Abstract: Understanding how the CPU and memory work together to complete the tasks of program execution and data management in computer systems is both the focus and difficulty of the teaching process of Principles and Applications of Microcomputers, and also a challenging part in teaching C language programming or other high-level language courses. By simplifying concepts and using easy-to-understand methods, this paper delves into the relationship between variables, pointers, and addresses at the hardware connection level, proposes that variables pointers are both memory addresses, standardizes the concepts of variable names and values, and effectively helps students deepen their understanding of variables, pointers and memory, achieving good results in teaching processes.
