A pointer to String

[muk_luk]

Hi:

How would I create a pointer to a String in C?

thanks in advance.

[Prelude]

char *p = "some string literal";

A pointer to a string is just a pointer to char that ends up pointing to a sequence of characters in memory ending with nul.

But how would I create a pointer that will be pointing to a string but it is initialized to null?

[Prelude]

char *p = NULL;

Then later you can point it wherever you'd like.
