c - Pointer to memory -

i'm learning c , have problems whit pointers. i'm triying print memory slot every declared variable, when declare pointer char[], not work.

here's code:

int main () {     char a[3]; // variable problem     int b;     float c;     char d;     int e=4;      char *pachar; //a char type variable pointer.     int *paint;     float *pafloat;     char *pacharr;     int *paintt;      pachar = &a; // when try assign memory pointer, shows warning message.     paint = &b;     pafloat = &c;     pacharr = &d;     paintt = &e;       printf("%p \n",pachar);     printf("%p \n",paint);     printf("%p \n",pafloat);     printf("%p \n",pacharr);     printf("%p \n",paintt);      return(0); } 

this warning message. doing wrong?

"warning: assignment incompatible pointer type"

you declared a array of char:

char a[3]; 

name a represents array, can interpreted pointer initial element of array. therefore not need & when assign a pointer:

pachar = a; 

when take address of a in &a expression, pointer array of 3 characters. trying assign pointer-to-an-array pointer-to-char triggers compiler warning.
