Doubt in Pointers

9
Dear friends,
Kindly explain me the following difference between the two statements,
char x[]="harry potter";
printf( "%c\n", (&x)[0][2] );
printf( "%c\n", &x[0][0]);

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Salvi.

I mean,
printf( "%c\n", (&x)[0][2] );
printf( "%c\n", &x[0][2]);

have you looked up the operator precedence table?
