### Question 6.9

Someone explained to me that arrays were really just constant pointers.

This is a bit of an oversimplification. An array name is ``constant'' in that it cannot be assigned to, but an array is not a pointer, as the discussion and pictures in question 6.2 should make clear. See also questions 6.3 and 6.8.
