Pointer to console arguments

Question

As a C newbie, I have trouble to understand the following:

 int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
     char **inputs = argv + 1;

char **inputs is a pointer to char *argv[] which is also a pointer, right? But why I have to add the "+1" at the end? Will this be an extra space for the '\0' character?

Answer 1

argv[0], or the first argument, is the string holding the name of your program.

Answer 2

argv[0] is the program you're currently running
argv[1+] are the arguments passed to the program
