hello. 
i just subscribed to this list and i've allready got a question.

i am a begginer with C programming and know only some of the basics, but
i am learnning fast by now cuz i got alot of experiance with coding.. )

i know how to define and write functions and so with C but there is
something in the args that the function recive that i see in some
sources i have that i cant understand.. 
like the * thing... 

for example: 

int new_send (int fd, char *buff, size_t len)

what is the meanning of the "*" in this line ? (char *buff).

again , sorry for the dumb question.. :)

thanks.
