Allocate a block of memory for n bytes


char b[n];

Assign an address


char *b = ("abc123");

// An address of the first letter 'a' on character string "abc123" 

// would be assigned to pointer b.

About the difference between arrays and pointers when viewed from another angle


auto signed char a[0x0A];

auto signed char *b;



b = a;

printf("&a: %p\n",&a);

printf(" a: %p\n",a);

printf(" b: %p\n",b);

printf("&b: %p\n",&b);
