transpose.c

#include <stdio.h>
int* transpose_matrix(int **matrix, int order){
  int tmatrix[3][3];
  int i,j,k;
  for ( i = 0; i < order; i++) {
    for ( j = 0; j < order; j++) {
        matrix[i][j] = tmatrix[j][i];
    }
  }
  return tmatrix;
}

void  main() {
  int order=3;
  int matrix[3][3];
  int **tpointer;
  int detofmatrix;
  int i,j;

  printf("enter the elements in the matrix\n" );
  for ( i = 0; i < order; i++) {
    for ( j = 0; j < order; j++) {
      scanf("%d",matrix[i][j]);
    }
  }
  //detofmatrix = determinant(matrix,order);
  //printf("determinant of the given matrix is :  %d", detofmatrix);

  printf("transpose of the given matrix is : \n");
  tpointer = transpose_matrix(matrix, 3);
  for ( i = 0; i < order; i++) {
    for ( j = 0; j < order; j++) {

      printf("%d    ", tpointer[i][j]);
    }
    printf("\n");

  }

}

this is a wrong approach, In c we cannot return the entire array by a function
