incrementing an array of pointers in C

Question

this is probably an essentially trivial thing, but it somewhat escapes me, thus far..

char * a3[2];
a3[0] = \"abc\";
a3[1] = \"def\";
char ** p;


Answer 1

a3 is a constant pointer, you can not increment it. "p" however is a generic pointer to the start of a3 which can be incremented.
