Thread: Array Problem

Code:

char *arrayofpointerstocharacters[ ARRAYSIZE ];

Quzah.

At compile time (one possible way):

Code:

const char *text[100] =
{
   "p1",
   /* ...the rest of them... */
   "p100"
};

At runtime (one possible way): declare array as a 2D char Array and use sprintf in a loop to fill it. More details on usage = better replies.

then declare array[0]="p1" etc

That won't work, you can't assign strings like that. You'd need to strcpy it into the array:

Code:

strcpy(array[0], "p1");

But if you're going to initialise them all statically, you might as well do it as has already been suggested in previous posts, with an initialisation list, or with a loop and sprintf.
