A `char *' is a pointer to a character. In the context of a string, it
is a pointer to the first character in the string.
A `char **' is a pointer to a pointer to a character. In the context
of the previous program, both of the `index' variables are pointers to
the first pointer in an array of pointers, each of which is a pointer
to the first character of a string.
So:
index is a `char **'
index[i] is a `char *'
index[i][j] is a `char'.
