is an array of 8 chars
A char* is a pointer to a char, which might contain the address of s[0].
It is often important to remember that C doesn't actually have a string
type like Pascal or BASIC etc does. You are essentially constructing one
out of the low level pieces C provides (and the null terminator
convention).
