Hi,
I've been programming in C for a couple of years now and I thought
I knew at least the basics pretty well, but this has me stumped.

Why does the following short little program output

     10 <rubbish> <rubbish>
     It's also 10 10 10

instead of  
  
     10 10 10
     It's also 10 10 10 

It's not a gcc bug because Borland gives a similar output,
but -Wall gives absolutely no warnings. So what's wrong?

TIA,
Elliott

#include <stdio.h>

typedef int thing[3];

void Dump(thing *V)
{
printf("\n%i %i %i\n",*V[0],*V[1],*V[2]);
}

int main(void)
{
thing V;
V[0] = V[1] = V[2] = 10;
Dump(&V);
printf("\nIt's also %i %i %i\n",V[0],V[1],V[2]);
return 0;
}
