1) They probably differ in being constants or non-constants.
3) It's "3d" because you have an extra pointer in the way. Every level of pointers requires another dereferencing operation to access it. One level pointer requires one. Two level pointer requires two. Three level pointer requires three. 97 level pointer requires 97. That is the pattern.
The first dereferencing operation gets rid of is x itself; once you do so, you are essentially accessing y. The next level of pointers points to individual rows inside y. The last level gets you an individual cell in that row.
The diagram is x -> y -> row -> column.

If one wants to get a start address of a array or a string or a block of memory via a function, there are at least two methods to achieve it:
(1) one is to pass a pointer-to-pointer parameter, like:
int my_malloc(int size, char **pmem)
{
*pmem=(char *)malloc(size);
if(*pmem==NULL)... (11 Replies)

Hello,
The purpose of the program is to print a sub string from the prompt inputs. I do not understand why char pointer does not work but char array will for line 40 and Line 41.

scandir
scandir(3) Library Functions Manual scandir(3)Name
scandir - scan a directory
Syntax
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/dir.h>
scandir(dirname, namelist, select, compar)
char *dirname;
struct direct *(*namelist[]);
int (*select)();
int (*compar)();
alphasort(d1, d2)
struct direct **d1, **d2;
Description
The subroutine reads the directory dirname and builds an array of pointers to directory entries using It returns the number of entries in
the array and a pointer to the array through namelist.
The select parameter is a pointer to a user supplied subroutine which is called by to select which entries are to be included in the array.
The select routine is passed a pointer to a directory entry and should return a non-zero value if the directory entry is to be included in
the array. If select is null, then all the directory entries will be included.
The compar parameter is a pointer to a user supplied subroutine which is passed to to sort the completed array. If this pointer is null,
the array is not sorted. The is a routine which can be used for the compar parameter to sort the array alphabetically.
The memory allocated for the array can be deallocated with free by freeing each pointer in the array and the array itself. For further
information, see
Diagnostics
Returns -1 if the directory cannot be opened for reading or if cannot allocate enough memory to hold all the data structures.
