It seems as if what I have done so far is not syntactically correct.

void display(Event* Eptr[50],int(*read_events)(Event , int )) //1. can i  do this?;

void display(Event* Eptr[50],int(*read_events)(Event , int ));

int *Fptr = &read_Events;//#2 Is this possible?

int(*Fptr)(Event , int ) = &read_Events;

int(*Fptr)(Event , int ) = read_Events;
