I am wondering what is the difference between int* array[5] and int (*array)[5]?

When I try the access of 2D array works with both of them. I could even accessing it with single int* array but have to multiply row*columns because they all are reserved consecutively in the memory.

Well (referring to the forms in the title), on one `sizeof array` is a compile error, and on the other `sizeof array[0]` is. – Ben Voigt Sep 15 '14 at 22:00
