Suppose you have a machine with more addressable memory cells than the size of an integer. Since the pointer cannot contain the address of integers in cells whoms address exceed its size, does this means it cannot point at said cells?
Applying the same idea to the largest primitive type possible in a system, does this means its length is the absolute limit of what pointers can point to?
