"Pointer Notation and array Notaion are interchangable."

Amazing. Dan posts a link to the comp.lang.c faq on this very topic then someone comes along and makes a completely misleading statement like that.


The FAQ link is about why a pointer is not the same as an array;
Neil's point is that, although pointers & arrays are different, they both use the same Notation.
Sounds fair enough to me...
