Hello there,
char *v //pointer to type char
char **v //pointer to an array of pointers that all point to
// type char (double pointer)
char ***v //pointer to an array of double pointers of
// type char (triple pointer).
char ****v //pointer to an array of triple pointers of type char ...
etc.
Good luck with it.
