Hi there,

We'd like to declare a function that returns an array.

Face rekursion(Face flaeche, int rek){
...do something in here....

return flaeche;
/*4 Points that declare a Face should be returned here */

Face is declared like that:
typedef Point Face[ 4];

Point is declared like that:
typedef float Point[3];

The problem is that we get the following error message:
'rekursion' declared as function returning an array
and a warning: return makes integer from pointer without a cast

Petra & Laura

Arrays cannot be used directly as return values from functions.

The problem can be approached in a number of possible ways;
* Pass an empty array to function as another argument, to be
  filled in by the function.
* Use a structure to hold the array - a struct can be returned.
  e.g.
    typedef float Point[3];
    typedef struct { Point pnt[4]; }Face;

Hope this helps
