C语言中指针和字符串的联系与区别小析

/*指针和字符串的联系和区别*/
#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
    const char *mesg = "Don't be a fool!"; //指针形式定义一个字符串
    const char *copy;
    copy = mesg;
    printf("%s\n", copy);
    printf("mesg = %s;  &mesg = %p;  value = %p\n", mesg, &mesg, mesg);
    //分别代表指针所指的字符串、指针变量的存储地址、指针的值

    printf("copy = %s;  &copy = %p;   copy = %p\n", copy, &copy, copy);
    //同上
    return 0;
}

Don't be a fool!
mesg = Don't be a fool!;  &mesg = 000000000061FE10;  value = 0000000000404000     
copy = Don't be a fool!;  &copy = 000000000061FE18;   copy = 0000000000404000     

由输出结果可知：字符串指针的赋值，只是将mesg的值给了copy，并没有复制字符串。也即两个指针指向同一个字符串，另外也可以看出，在内存中，两个指针是连续存储的
