Writing a function that returns a pointer to an array of real numbers I always get the proper pointer but - for some unknown reason - the values in the array pointed to are incorrect. Examining the function itself neither the pointervalue nor the actual numbers in the array are wrong. But trying to call them after they have been returned from the function always results in some kind of random numbers in the array. Important: the pointer returned by the function and the pointer received by the calling function are the same. Only the values in the array have changed which has given me some thought for the past days. Does anyone know the reason for that??
Here s the sample program:

int *DomainSize(void)
{
int *PDomainS ;
int i,DomainS[5] ;

 PDomainS = DomainS ;

 for (i=0;i<5;i++) {
  DomainS[i] = i+11 ;
 }
 return(PDomainS) ;
}


void main(void)
{
int *PG ;    
int i ;

 PG = DomainSize() ;
 for (i=0;i<5;i++)
  printf("%i \n",*(PG+i)) ;
}

the pointer PDomainS in DomainSize() points to the first element in DomainS[]. This value is passed to PG (in main) correctly. But printing the values of *(PG+i) results in arbitrary numbers. Once you ve got the right pointer you should find the proper numbers in the memory, shouldn t you??
