指针数组作函数参数

#include<stdio.h>
main()
{
 static char *name[]={"illegal","Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday","Thursday","Friday","Saturday","Sunday"};
 char *ps;    

   int i;
 char *day_name(char *name[],int n);

 printf("Input Day No:");
 scanf("%d",&i);
 if(i<0)
  exit(1);
 ps=day_name(name,i);                       ------------->为什么这样使用??????
 printf("Day No:%2d-->%s\n",i,ps);
}
char *day_name(char *name[],int n)
{
 char *pp1,*pp2;
 pp1=*name;
 pp2=*(name+n);
 return((n<1||n>7)?pp1:pp2);
}
