Difference between char *argv[] and char **argv for the second argument to main() [duplicate]

Answer 1

It is fundamental to c that char** x and char* x[] are two ways of expressing the same thing. Both declare that the parameter receives a pointer to an array of pointers. Recall that you can always write:

 char *parray[100];
 char **x;

 x = &parray[0];

and then use x identically.
