c - How to make a function return a pointer to array struct -

i'm working on function in c should return pointer array struct. struct is

struct corr{   char nome[128];   char cognome[128];   char password[10];   float importo; }; typedef struct corr correntista; 

the function return pointer struct is

correntista *max_prelievo(file *fcorrentisti, file *fprelievi){     correntista *corr_max[2];     corr_max[0] = (correntista *)malloc(sizeof(correntista));     corr_max[1] = (correntista *)malloc(sizeof(correntista));     /*.........*/     return *corr_max; } 

in main program want print returned value in following way:

*c_max = max_prelievo(fc, fp); printf("correntista con max prelievi:\n"); printf("nome: %s\n", c_max[0]->nome); printf("cognome: %s\n", c_max[0]->cognome); printf("max prelievo: %f\n\n", c_max[0]->importo);  printf("correntista con max versamenti:\n"); printf("nome: %s\n", c_max[1]->nome); printf("cognome: %s\n", c_max[1]->cognome); printf("max versamento: %f\n", c_max[1]->importo); 

but first struct c_max[0] has expected value. c_max[1] has garbage values. should change in program?

remember have array of pointers when exit function array out of scope. have pointer pointer purpose shown below.

correntista **max_prelievo(file *fcorrentisti, file *fprelievi){     correntista **corr_max = malloc(sizeof(correntista *) * 2);     corr_max[0] = malloc(sizeof(correntista));     corr_max[1] = malloc(sizeof(correntista));     /*.........*/     return corr_max; } 

the call should be

correntista **c_max = max_prelievo(fc, fp);
