Pointer Arithmetic trouble

My code is designed to intake a pointer list, which will point to an array, and put all the negative values into a new pointer first, then followed by all the positive values into the new pointer second.

Code:

---

void rearrange(int* list, int* new, int size)
{
  int i, j=0, temp;
  for(i=0; i<size; i++)
  {
      if(*(list + i) < 0)
      {
          temp= *(list + i); /* I am under the impression that we     
                                      should first "create a house" or an
                                      address for the pointer new to look at*/


        (new + j)=&temp; /*This code line fails with the message
                                      lvalue required as left operand of
                                      assignment*/
        j++;                  /* Keeps the assignment going along the
                                      pointer new */
      }
  }
  for(i=0; i<size; i++)
  {
      if(*(list + i) > 0)
      {
        temp = *(list + i);
        new = &temp;
        j++;
      }
  }
}

What is my problem?!!!!!
Thank You

Code:

        (new + j)=&temp; /*This code line fails with the message

                                      assignment*/

You are assigning the address of temp to the address of new + j. IOW, you're attempting to change the address pointed to by new + j. I'm pretty sure that's not what you want since temp is locally declared and will disappear once the function returns and you can't change the address of new + j. You need to dereference new + j:

Code:

---

*(new + j) = temp;

---

That will assign the value in temp to the address pointed to by new + j. This copies the contents, rather than location of contents.

Thank you very much
