 =====MALLOC’ED ARRAY=====
+The array exists as a linear allocation of memory, and any particular value in the array can be accessed by adding the value of that location to the pointer when calling it
-To access the specific parts of your array you need to use (*(ptr)).
+Example:
-The ptr is the pointer and it can be added to (*(ptr+n)).. If you want to use a part of the structure you will need to put the name of it at the end of (*(ptr)).(varible). You can use an int to add to ptr. The ptr starts with zero so use one more number than you want.
+    (*(b_arr + 0)).x = 20;
+would make the first x value of the array 20 and
+    (*(b_arr + 1)).x = 30;
+would make the second x value of the array 30, and so on
 ====ACCESSING WITH POINTER ARITHMETIC====
 Pointers to structs can be accessed the same way a class can, like so
