Well, I'm far from an expert on stuff like this, but if I remember my algorithms class correctly, and assuming that there was a misprint in this and that it should have been declared as "char** array_one[]", then my recollection tells me to read it as an array_one, which is an array of pointers to pointers to chars - right/left rule. array_one, [], *, *, char - is that right? Or am I gonna get my ass handed to me when I retake the class in the spring and, once again, he doesn't get a single completely correct submission when he assigns us the task of writing a c++ class that will do Huffman en/decryption? :-P
(Disclaimer: Answering either question in the affirmative does not make the answer to the other question... oh, hell, I can't think of how I wanna word this - just b/c you give one answer to one, that doesn't mean you have to give a certain answer to the other... *s*) -C --- Robert Brinson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, all.
