c - Difference between assigning strings -

-

in c tried assign sting variable in 2 different ways

char question[200]; strcpy( question, "this question" );

and

char question[] = "this question";

and both works... what's difference between these 2 methods?

the difference flexibility. this

strcpy( question, "this question" );

you can anytime after declare variable. whereas this:

char question[] = "this question";

you have use directly during declaration time.

in second example length of question got fixed length of text +1 null terminator. can't change length of variable later, can't assign larger string example.
