question on battleship program.

I'm going to do a battleship program with a 10x10 array. We will have to use pointers, im new to pointers so I am confused on how set the array equal to the pointers.

here is my guess.

[code]

int a[10][10];
int *aprt=a;

[code/]

will this work? also I do a pick a square with pointers such as a[0][1] as a quadrant.

thanks for the help.
