Hi,
C is a bit special, if you declare this:
char x;
It will only accept single chars like
x = 'a';
x = 'z';
If you want to save a entire string you should use
char x[length]
To use it as an array to store multiple chars, but take care, save the last index to put this char: '/0', that means the end of the string
The advantage of using char* is that don't need to set the length and then you don't have to be worried about having space to put the '/0' last char
I'm not specialist in C, so correct me if I'm wrong!
Hope it helps you

* is a pointer, that means you are creating a pointer that references a location in memory, I'm sure about that
