I can do that inside main. What i can't do is with divide:
char divide(char search_string[], char *array[], char *delimiter)
and return the string you printed! Can this be done?
As others have mentioned multiple times, your divide() function returns
a single char value. It cannot return a string.
In general, a function cannot directly return a string or array; it
has to be done indirectly somehow. There are several ways to do this.
The comp.lang.c FAQ is at <http://www.c-faq.com/>. Read section 6,
"Arrays and Pointers".

We must do something. This is something. Therefore, we must do this.
