But the issue in this thread is different: the subscript '7' in a[1][7] is in fact out of range, but it references the /third/ element past-the-end of a row in the array declared as "int a[4][5]" Alf's remark was about Ben's declaration: > char result[28], *ep = (&result)[1]; Here 'ep' points to the /first/ element past-the-end of the 1-sized array that includes "result" (a char[28]) Now, pointers to the /first/ past-the-end element of an array are well defined in C. > > Therefore, not only is it thinkable, it has in fact been thought.
