Hi,

Is it possible to get a point of array?

both of "char[][]* pararch = &ararch;" and "char*** pppararch =
&ararch;" failed. Of course, I can do it like "char*** pppararch =
(char***)&ararch;" But I want to know whether there is any decent or
official way to do it.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
char ararch[3][3];
// char[][]* pararch = &ararch;
// char*** pppararch = &ararch;

If you really want a pointer to the 3 by 3 array named ararch, then you can do it with:

char (*pararch)[3][3] = &ararch;

I am not sure if this is really what you want. Using the above code, to get the equivalent of

ararch[i][j]

you will need to use

(*pararch)[i][j]

Perhaps what you really want is a pointer to the first row of the array:

char (*pararch)[3] = &ararch[0];

In this case, the equivalent of

ararch[i][j]

is the simpler

pararch[i][j]

Note: the use of 3 as both the row and column dimension may make the foregoing less clear than it might be. Suppose we had:

char ararch[3][4];

Then you would need:

char (*pararch)[4] = &ararch[0];

i.e., you use the second dimension.
