does a higher index mean a higher pointer value?

[ausairman]

Quick conceptual question; if I have an array arr, is the following always true?

if a > b, then &arr[a] > &arr[b]

[firedraco]

Yes.

&arr[a] == &*(arr+a) == (arr+a);

That's why getting the address of the first element/pointer arithmetic work over arrays.

Makes sense, thanks!
