Sorry, that's confusing. Yes, it ends up being equal to a.ptr but 
conceptually, the compiler does not pass .ptr directly; it passes the 
address of the entire array. Since the address of the entire static 
array is the same as the address of its first element it equals a.ptr 
and works perfectly in the C land.
