Pointer to an array of structures

[Zool]

I would like to create a small address book cell. I created a structure with all values accessible to a person then I defined an array of this structure But then I need to use a pointer to a specific case of the table so I thought of two solutions and I want your opinion:

 (Individual + i) -> name [n] = 0

and

  individual [i] -> name [n] = 0

i is the individual pointer to the table structure and it is the position in the table and n is the position in the string name.

It is this that you want to do?

# include <stdio.h> 

  typedef struct 
  ( 
	  char name [10]; 
	  char first_name [10]; 
	  unsigned int age; 

  Individual); 

  int main (void) 
  ( 
	  Individual I [5]; 

	  scanf ( "% 9s", I [0]. name); 

	  / * ...  * / 

	  printf ( "% s", I [0]. name); 

	  return 0; 
  )

No in fact I try to use a pointer to the table than the value.

// array of pointers to structs
link heads[config->m]; 

// make memory for head nodes
for(n = 0; n < config->j; k++)
  heads[i] = malloc(sizeof(struct node));

The code works (which is great).
