Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`WordPointer`	`addressOf(int index)` Computes the address of the array element with the specified index, treating the pointer as an array of the C type.
`WordPointer`	`addressOf(SignedWord index)` Computes the address of the array element with the specified index, treating the pointer as an array of the C type.
`<T extends WordBase> T`	`read()` Reads the value at the pointer address.
`<T extends WordBase> T`	`read(int index)` Reads the value of the array element with the specified index, treating the pointer as an array of the C type.
`<T extends WordBase> T`	`read(SignedWord index)` Reads the value of the array element with the specified index, treating the pointer as an array of the C type.
`void`	`write(int index, WordBase value)` Writes the value of the array element with the specified index, treating the pointer as an array of the C type.
`void`	`write(SignedWord index, WordBase value)` Writes the value of the array element with the specified index, treating the pointer as an array of the C type.
`void`	`write(WordBase value)` Writes the value at the pointer address.
