Hi,
  I have following piece of C-code below. Pls go thru and try to answer
the questions I have below:

void func(char **);
main()
{
char *a[]={"god","father"};//ARRAY OF strings,i.e.

func(a);

}

void func(char **ptr)
{
Now here in function "func" i want to access(printf), the 2 strings
"god" and "father". How can I do so.
  e.g. printf("%s %s ",*ptr,*ptr +/- <some pointer offset from the
first pointer value for the first string "god">  );

}//func ends

1.)My question is how can I access/printf the second string "father" by
using variable ptr. How do I calculate the pointer offsets for this
second string from the first one?

2.)Second question : Is there any way by which I can get sizeof the two
strings in bytes, for the definition below -
char *a[]={"god","father"};

wishes,
AD.
