Answer 1

I tend to follow The Precedence Rule for Understanding C Declarations which is given very nicely in the book Expert C Programming - Deep C Secrets by Peter van der Linden

A - Declarations are read by starting with the name and then reading in 
precedence order.

B - The precedence, from high to low, is:
        B.1 parentheses grouping together parts of a declaration
        B.2 the postfix operators:
        parentheses () indicating a function, and
        square brackets [] indicating an array.
        B.3 the prefix operator: the asterisk denoting "pointer to".

C If a const and/or volatile keyword is next to a type specifier (e.g. int, 
        long, etc.) it applies to the type specifier. 
        Otherwise the const and/or volatile keyword 
        applies to the pointer asterisk on its immediate left.
