Demo Code

#include <stdio.h>

int main()/* w w  w .jav  a2s. co m*/
{
      char ch;
      char cities[5][10] = {
                                    "11111",
                                    "1111",
                                    "111",

                                    "1"
                               };

      ptrPtr = &ptr;
    
     for(int i=0; i<5; i++) {
          ptr = (char *) cities[i];
          int j = 0;
    
          do {
                ch = *(ptr + j);
                printf("%c", ch);
                j = j + 1;
          } while(ch != '\0');
          printf("\t\t");

                printf("%c", ch);
                j = j + 1;
