Thanks

String is a C++ class and character is just a single data type for storing a single character.

char[]/char* are faster than using strings but they're also harder to manage (the latter especially) . The string class has certain methods to perform different actions depending on what you're doing, will of course save you some time.

the difference between character and string variables,
the character variable take in memory just one byte and we can put in char varible one character like:

char c='A';

but string is a character array termenated by null "\0" like:

char str[6]="dream";

OR

 char* str= new char[6];
str="dream";

remember str[5] is contain null '\0' and also u can write it zero 0
and you can also make that:

 char str[6];
str[0]='d';
str[1]='r';
str[2]='e';
str[3]='a';
str[4]='m';
str[5]=0;

remember str[6] is not exist it a size of array and u can many functions in string.h make many operations on string like:
strcpy,strcmp and strcat and so on.
