if I have this: char *names[4]={"james", "rob", "mike", "denis"}; char *words[2]={"house", "market"}; how would I make a function that would assign a pointer to represent one of these two (names or words) depending on a number....sorta like this char Do_It(int type) { [what kind of variable do I declare here??] char **strings; //???? if (type==0) [Then assign pointer to names] else if (type==1) [Then assign same pointer to words] return 0; } how would I assign it......the way I was doing it (i think its wrong) is strings=words; or strings=names; but that causes errors...crashes..
