Character array means a array of characters. #define MAXSIZE = 32; char charArray [MAXSIZE] = '\0'; //in the program somewhere... charArray = "Mohammed Mowlid"; In good old C language a string (say "Bharat" is actually an array of characters ended with a bill character (NULL or '\0')). In C language all strings are null terminated (just like you use the period or full stop to mark an end to an English sentence). in C++ you have the string class. as the name suggests it's a class and you can create string objects with that. continuing with the above example, we have say... string countryName = "Bharat"; here Bharat becomes an object of type string class with length 6. #include<string> // somewhere in the program.... string name = "Mohammed Mowlid"; // well that's all you need. // you need not worry about nulls. In C++ too you can use the c-style strings, but that's not required as C++ standard library has the string class that does most of what you want to do with strings.
