Keywords: argv definition

on page 110 of K&R it says:
  
    "...(argv) is a pointer to an array of character strings..."

but since the primary-expression operator [] has higher priority than
the unary operator *, then isn't it more correct to say that argv
(which is defined as char *argv[]) is an array of pointers to character
strings?
