Accesing the character array through pointer

sir in the video of cpp webinar :2-d arrays strings when we solve the questions through functions we often pass the character array using the * notation.So does this means that we are accessing the the array through its location using pointers?

the name of array is itself act as a pointer with some differnce when u pass with * then u can access all the features of pointer like *(a) will gave first element and *(a+1) willgave second elemnet and if u pass by int a[], then u can not use like this

Sorry but can you please elaborate .I didn’t quite understand it fully

i mean int *a means u r using it by pointer and and if u pass like int a[] then also u r passing the address but in this u cannot use pointers features like dereferencing etc
