Thread: Question related to array and pointers

There is Array of Pointer:int *ptr[]
Pointer To Pointer:int **ptr

then is there a stuff : Pointer of Arrays?

i think there is, but i can't think right now. maybe in the morning...

in any case, you're looking for english to C++ translations. english is very different from c++. some stuff which makes perfect sense in c++ is nearly inexplicable in english, and vice versa. (which can explain why so many people learn better from code than from articles)

pointer of arrays...

Doesn't make much sense to me. You can have an array of pointers as you've shown but I'm not sure about a pointer of arrays, it just sounds wrong.

Pointers of Array doesnt makes sense?

You can think of an array as a pointer. So, a pointer to an array is really just a pointer to a pointer. People use subscripting because it is easier to read.

I think what Q4u meant was to say pointer to array.

You can declare a pointer to an array like this:

int (*ptr)[10];

ptr would thus be a pointer to an array of 10 elements.
