Answer / kapil kumar verma iimt meerut

when we declare array of char it has to be terminated by
null but termination by null in case of string is
automatic.the compiler automatically puts a null char when
we insert a string for example "kapil" for the
string "kapil\0", but for a char array we need assign a
place for it for example a[6] contains five char & a null
char.& secondly
when char array is read through scanf() input function then
spaces are not allowed if characters is read as string
(through gets() function) spaces are allowedand are treated
as a single char.

String is much same as character array, it can also be
checked by each characters:
string str;for(int i=0;str[i]!='\0';i++) cout <<str[i]<<endl;

Answer / shayan

the main difference between array of char and string is that when we declare array of char like char name[6],in this case for example shayan s is stored in 0 index and last character is n which is at 5 index but i delared 6 because 6th index is of null character which is neccesary to declare but in string it will automatically declare by the compiler like "shayan" after n compiler automatically put \0 after n.
