strings 1

//strings are not a data type in c language

//string- array of characters terminated by null character('\0')

//we can create a character array in the following ways:

//1. char name[]="harish" here compiler will automaticaly take null character

//2. char name[]={'h','a','r','i','s','h','/0'} here we have to put null character('\0')

#include <stdio.h>

void printstr(char str[]) //function to print string

{

    int i=0;

    while(str[i]!='\0')

    {

        printf("%c",str[i]);

        i++;

    }

    printf("\n");

}

int main()

{

    char str1[]={'h','a','r','i','s','h','\0'}; // 1st way to giving value a string

    printstr(str1);

    char str2[]="shiva"; // 2nd way to giving value a string

    printstr(str2);

    return 0;

}
