Question

What is the difference between char s[] and char *s in C

Answer 1

// The char s[] is an array, whereas *s is a pointer

char *s = "c dev";

// Making s a pointer to "c dev" in read-only memory - any writing on this memory is illegal


char s[] = "Hello world";

// Copy the string to newly allocated memory on the stack - any writing on this memory is legal
