Your solution_func3() is what I would use with a slight modification to
illiminate the calculation drawback you mention...

solution_func3(array,rows,cols)
char *array;
int rows, cols;
{
    int i,j;

    for(i=0, i<rows, ++i)
        for(j=0, j<cols, ++j )
            some_operation(*array++);
  /*
   * Of course if you want to do some kind of random indexing then you still
   * end up with doing the calculation you stated "[i*cols + j]".
   */
}
