Character pointer arrays

Code:

---

I am tryin to store strings in an array **ro in vain.... any idea why it gives a compile time error..

  char **ro;
  while(fgets(c,sizeof(c),fq)!=NULL)
  {
    *ro=c;
      ro++;
  }

This is a very closely related problem to your previous question. Did you read my reply, and if so, did you understand it?

[Actually, I don't really see why you should get a compile-time error, but I can see how it would definitely crash instantly when you get there at runtime].

yes... i did look at the first one and i had a problem applying strcpy thatz why i tried alil different one...  it compiled but when i try to print in a separate loop, it prints only the last string.... meaning it replacing a string for a string... need some help in that...

  while(fgets(c,sizeof(c),fq)!=NULL)
  {
    aqq[count]=c;
    count++;
  }
  char **ar=aqq;
  while(*ar){
    printf("new %s",*ar);
    ar++;
  }

i also don't understand malloc

Ok, so malloc() is a function that "gives you a piece of memory that is of a certain size" [or if it can't, you get a NULL pointer back].

You probably need to read up on pointers a little bit. There is a tutorial at the main page , www.cprogramming.com, that explains more about pointers and dynamic memory.
