'''A:''' The pointer can't be dereferenced, because the compiler will not know how much of the memory is devoted to that particular value. For example if one has 8 bytes in memory with values in it, they are interpreted differently as int (2x 4 byte ints) and double (1x 8byte double). Without a data type the value cannot be determined therefore casting must be done first.
