I was slightly uncertain about that. But since it is the case that using the
increment operator on a pointer makes that pointer "move on" to the next element
in an array, so it must also be the case that adding 1 to a pointer does the
same thing.

It must be longer since I last used C in anger than I thought, and I must have
been even more tired than I believed I was on Friday. ;-)
