Thread: assigning an string of arrays by loop

the idea is to assign an array of string, for example:

a[0] = a
a[1] = aa
a[2] = aaa
a[3] = aaaa
a[4] = aaaaa

but assigned and outputted in a for loop:

Code:

printf("%s\n", ba[i]);

at the moment, i have something like this

Code:

    char ba[10];


    char first[] = "first";
    char second[] = "second";



    for(i=0;i<10;i++){
        strcat(second,first);
            ba[i] = second;
            printf("%s\n", ba[i]);


  }
