In this question ,two wrong thins ----
1.this is an array of char pointer so use
strcy(text[no.],"Hello World");
2.
we are copying a string without allocating memory to pointer . This is bug code .
correct solution :----
char *string()
{
char *text[20];
text[0]=malloc(20*sizeof (char));
strcpy(text,"Hello world");
return text;
}
