    How to Declare Character array with filepath?

    Hey all, I'm working on my intro to computing science lab, and the lab deals with "declaring a character array and initilize it with the filepath where filepath is the location of the Cinderella.txt", how do I go about doing this? I have to input a file but the question is how? I have the Cinderella.txt saved on my desktop, so can anyone please explain to me the syntax? Please and thank you!

    Surely you've done declarations with initializations before, like
    Code:
    int a = 5;
    float b = 3.7f;
    char c = 'c';
    double d[4] = {1.5, 2.5, 7.5, 11.5};
    et cetera? So declare a char array, and initialize it with the location of your file.
