array of pfuncs in one statement

I was fidgeting around with the compiler today and I tried to create an array of function pointers in one statement, but couldn't quite do it that directly. Or at least I can't figure it out.

Here's what I tried:

Code:

---

void (*arrpfunc)[10](); // error: array element type cannot be a function
typedef void (*pfunc)();
pfunc arr[10]; // no problems.

---

BTW, i'm using vstudio.net

Simple:

void (*arrpfunc[10])();

allrighty, that worked, thx.

Read it from the inside out starting at the identifier.

Code:

---

void (*arrpfunc)[10]();

      arrpfunc                // is a
      *                        // pointer to
                [10]            // an array of ten
                    ()          // functions?
void                            // returning nothing

---

Kinda goofy and doesn't make sense, right? :-) Try this instead

Code:

---

void (*arrpfunc[10])();

      arrpfunc                // is an
              [10]            // array of ten
      *                        // pointers to
                    ()          // functions
void                            // returning nothing

---

See? It only looks complicated when everything is squished together like that. :-)

Oh yeah, that style of thinking jumped out at me after seeing the correct code, but thx for the help anyway. i'm trying to read c++ programming language by bjarne stroustrup and so it goes into a lot of syntactical details like that
