A null-terminated string is a sequence of characters followed by a null character (ASCII value 0 or '\0'). The null character serves as a terminator, indicating the end of the string. This type of string representation is commonly used in programming languages like C and C++.
Here are the key points about null-terminated strings:
Representation
A null-terminated string consists of a sequence of characters followed by a null character ('\0').
The null character is not part of the string itself but rather a terminator.
The length of the string can be determined by finding the position of the null character.
Memory Layout
In memory, a null-terminated string is stored as a contiguous block of characters, with the null character at the end.
The size of the memory block is typically one byte more than the length of the stri...
