initializing 2d strings

If I have class [5][20], how would I initialize it to have Boss, Manager, sales, ect on class[0][], class[1][] ..... respectively.

If you write and post some code, we can help guide you through whatever problems you are seeing.

On that post I have done the input thing correctly, sorting function is bad.

Is it a character array ? C does not have classes. It has structs.

Oh sorry, yes it is a character array, class is just the name of it.

From your example, it looks like a user input, I want to go ahead and initialize the string to 5 different words.

char class[5][20]={ }. What goes in the brackets?

I am a beginner. I don't know what goes into the brackets. That's why I used a temp string and loops to access each element and put the characters in them ;)

I found what you are looking for:

The syntax would be:

Code:

---

char class[5][20] = { "String1", "String2", etc };
