字符串的字符指针

Question

This is C code snippet:

 int main()
 {
   char *names=[ "tom", "jerry", "scooby" ];
   printf("%s", *names[0]);// prints t
   printf("%s", *names[1]);// prints j
  // how to print full word "tom", or full word "jerry"
}

As stated earlier, I want my output to be: tom jerry scooby So using pointers how do I print the whole thing?

Does it compile? Because your array initialization is not correct. To properly declare an array and print them, you can do:

#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
   char *names[]= { "tom", "jerry", "scooby" };
   printf("%s %s %s\n", names[0], names[1], names[2]);
   return 0;
}
