  Hello all together, I'm a bit confused about the usage of Pointers. I've a pointer char *p = "foo" and a pointer *q. Using the statement q = p makes q pointing on "foo". The C programming language sais "For example, if iq is another pointer to int, iq = ip copies the contents of ip into iq, thus making iq point to whatever ip pointed to." - but when the value *p points to changes to "bar", *q also points to "bar" and not to foo anymore. Isn't that in con
