64-bit integers, memory addresses, or other data units[a] are those that are 64 bits wide. Also, 64-bit central processing units (CPU) and arithmetic logic units (ALU) are those that are based on processor registers, address buses, or data buses of that size.
It also states Address bus, but as I mentioned before, that doesn’t exist. So it boils down to instruction set as a whole requiring 64 bit processor registers and Databus.
Obviously 64 bits means registers are 64 bit, the addresses are therefore also 64 bit, otherwise it would require type casting every time you need to make calculations on them. But it’s the ability to handle 64 bit registers in general that counts, not the address registers. which is merely a byproduct.
In computer science, type conversion,[1][2] type casting,[1][3] type coercion,[3] and type juggling[4][5] are different ways of changing an expression from one data type to another.
You don’t even have a clue, you are just talking trash.
In assembly you don’t generally talk about pointers, but address modes. Like register, immediate or memory (indirect).
Have you ever actually been programming any serious assembly? Because you sure don’t sound like it.

Which is why it’s such a pain, because you have to do it manually:

“floating-point pointers” is not a thing:
No it’s not:
