> For example are you only interested in pointers?

I get the impression from the source files within the software repository for
the operating system "MINIX 3.3.0" that pointers are specified for input
parameters (which will be also forwarded as return values) at 177 source code
places while non-pointer data types are used 301 times for such a specific
parameter in corresponding function signatures.
Are such facts worth for further considerations?

Markus
