Array Help

Modify the rain program in L isting   10.7    so that it does the calculations using pointers instead of subscripts. (You still have to declare and initialize the array.)

10.7

 

/* rain.c -- finds yearly totals, yearly average, and monthly
average for several years of rainfall data */
#include <stdio.h>
#define MONTHS 12 // number of months in a year
#define YEARS 5  // number of years of data
int main(void)
{
 // initializing rainfall data for 2000 - 2004
 const float rain[YEARS][MONTHS] =
 {
  { 4.3, 4.3, 4.3, 3.0, 2.0, 1.2, 0.2, 0.2, 0.4, 2.4, 3.5, 6.6 },
  { 8.5, 8.2, 1.2, 1.6, 2.4, 0.0, 5.2, 0.9, 0.3, 0.9, 1.4, 7.3 },
