Thread: pointer confusion

Hey,

I need a little help with pointers or maybe a good reference.

I have this code:

Code:

char *foo(char* temp){
    return temp;
}


int main(int argc, char *argv[]){


    char *bar[4];

    bar[0] = foo("1");
    bar[1] = foo("2");
    bar[2] = foo("3");
    bar[3] = foo("4");

    printf("%s\n", bar[0]);
    printf("%s\n", bar[1]);
    printf("%s\n", bar[2]);
    printf("%s\n", bar[3]);

    return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

the address of the temp variables is somewhere in the memory and could be overwritten right? As far as I know, the scope from temp ends on return and could be overwritten.
