i have this code but i can't get it to compile

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

char reverse(char *A);

int main()
{
char buffer1[] = {'t','h','i','s',' ','i','s',' ','t','h','e',
' ','f','i','r','s','t',' ','b','u','f','f','e','r','/0'};

char buffer2[] = "this is the second buffer";

char buffer3[80];

char *pbuffer = buffer3;

printf("Enter a string: ");
scanf("%s", buffer3);


printf("%s\n", buffer1);
printf("%s\n", buffer2);
printf("%s\n", buffer3);

do
{
printf("%s", *pbuffer);
*pbuffer++;
}
while(*pbuffer != '/0');

reverse [buffer3];
printf("%s\n", buffer3);

return 0;
}

char reverse (char *A)
{
char temp;

char *pfirst = A;
char *plast= A;

while(*plast !'\0')
{
plast ++;
}
plast --;

while(pfirst<plast)
{
temp = *pfirst;
*pfirst = *plast;
*plast = temp;

pfirst ++;
plast --;
}
return char *A;
}

See my reply to your other thread. For future refrence, just keep posting in the same thread, stop making multiple posts with different topics that are all the same issue.

> char reverse (char *A)

This is probably supposed to be:

char *reverse( char *A )
{
....do stuff...

return A;
}
