array confusion (int vs char)

[Shinzu911]

i was reading a text which stated an integer array for e.g

int array[5];

can store 5 elements where ,as character array

char array[5]={"abcd"}

can store 4 elements

is this true ?
can someone please clarify this for me
thank u.

It actually stores 5 characters, one being the null terminating character '\0'
