I am not sure whether you implied C does not interpret
argv = argv + n
as
argv = argv + n*sizeof(argv *) (treating everything like an int).
According to the reference manual, adding an int to a pointer (however you do
it) adds enough to the pointer that the new value points to the object n
elements away from the original object pointed to. Thus C does the same thing
as DASL.
