Correct syntax for initialization of a pointer to an array

Question

How can I initialize pointer to an array in C correctly

Here is my code

int (*data[10]);
int a[10];
data = &a[0]; /* gives a warning "int *" cannot be assigned to entity of "int (*)[10]" */

How can I get rid of this warning?

2. Assign a pointer to an array to it:

   int a[10];
   data = &a;
