In computer programming, indirection is the ability to reference something using a name, reference, or container instead of the value itself. The most common form of indirection is the act of manipulating a value through its memory address. For example, accessing a variable through the use of a pointer. A stored pointer that exists to provide a reference to an object by double indirection is called an indirection node.

  • In computer programming, indirection is the ability to reference something using a name, reference, or container instead of the value itself. The most common form of indirection is the act of manipulating a value through its memory address. For example, accessing a variable through the use of a pointer. A stored pointer that exists to provide a reference to an object by double indirection is called an indirection node. In some older computer architectures, indirect words supported a variety of more-or-less complicated addressing modes. A famous aphorism of David Wheeler goes: All problems in computer science can be solved by another level of indirection;
  • In informatica l'indirezione (detta anche riferimento indiretto) è la tecnica che consente di indicare un oggetto o un valore mediante un suo riferimento invece che direttamente. Il termine viene utilizzato frequentemente nei linguaggi di programmazione per indicare l'uso dei puntatori.
  • 間接参照(かんせつさんしょう）、あるいは逆参照とは、ある変数に割り当てられたメモリアドレスを得ることによって、その変数のメモリに格納されているデータを間接的に参照することである。
