Access man intro subsections


OS: Slackware 10.0

I try to view the content of the intro(3) subsection 3C(standard C functions). I have tried "man 3c intro" and "man 3C intro" but it doesn't work. When I enter "man 3 intro", it brings me at the third part of intro but I can't access to subsections.

thanks

Louis-Simon

I have read man pages but I cannot find it. The only thing that works is when I try "man 3 intro" then I get the summary but I can`t get inside the subsections.
