8. Initialization of Pointer Arrays
|
| |
 Consider the problem of writing a function month_name(n), which returns a pointer to a character string containing the name of the n-th month. This is an ideal application for an internal static array. |
| |
/* month_name: return name of n-th month */
char *month_name(int n)
{
static char *name[] {
“Illegal month”,
“January”, “February”, “March”,
“April, “May”, “June”,
“July”, “August”, “September”,
“October”, “November”, “December”
};
return (n < 1 || n > 12) ? name[0] : name[n];
}
