Declaring Strings In C
In C, how they are different?
char str[] = "xyz"; // statement
//and
char str[4] = "xyz"; // statement
The first, in my understanding, assigns a pointer to a string literal, whereas the second is a four-character character array (including the NULL character).
So how are these two preserved in memory if this is the case?
