Consider the following function whose purpose is to return an array of 3 strings that are initialized to the strings in the character arrays s1, s2, and s3:

#include

#include

char** stringstoarray(char* s1, char* s2, char* s3) {

// dynamically allocate space for the pointer array itself.

char** strings = ________________________

strings[ 0 ] = strdup(s1); // initialize first string

strings[ 1 ] = strdup(s2); // initialize first string

strings[ 2 ] = strdup(s3); // initialize third string

return strings;

}

In order for the function for the function to carry out its purpose, fill in the blank with the necessary code.
