Question

Pick the incorrect statement about Character-Array.

(a) Character-Array can be terminated by a null character(‘\0’)

(b) Character-Array has a static size

(c) Character-Array has a dynamic size

(d) Character-Array has a threat of array-decay

This question was posed to me in exam.

This interesting question is from String topic in chapter Source Files, Classes and Operator Overloading in C++ of C++

Answer 1

Right choice is (c) Character-Array has a dynamic size

Easy explanation - As Character-Array is an array, its size should be defined during its declaration hence the size of Character-Array is static. A Character-Array is not necessarily to be terminated by a null character. Also, it has a threat of array-decay.
