Making an Array to Hold Arrays of Character Arrays in C

Question

My C is a little more than rusty at the moment, so I\'m failing to create something I think should be pretty basic.

Allow me to refer to character arrays as strings

Answer 1

Note that your examples show arrays of pointers. If you want arrays of arrays (multidimensional arrays) specify all the sizes in the array definition.

char sentences[500][42]; /* sentences is an array of 500 elements.
                         ** each element is itself an array
                         ** capable of holding strings up to length 41 */
