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

You can't assign to a3, nor can you increment it. The array name is a constant, it can't be changed.
