Let me see if I understood.

const double a[4][4]

will become a "pointer to array of consts". So when i call my function passing
a "pointer to array", teh conversion fails since it's only allowed to apply teh
qualifier (const) to teh _pointer type_, which is an array, and not to it's
elements as teh function was expecting.

Correct me if I'm wrong again please and thanks for your patience.
