In computing, '''C strings''' are [[string]]s stored as one-dimensional [[character (computing)|character]] [[array]]s in the [[C programming language|C]] and [[C Plus Plus|C++]] programming languages. In C, they are simply called "strings," while in C++ they are called "C strings" to differentiate them from [[Standard Template Library|STL]] ([[ANSI]] standard C++) strings. C strings are distinguished by the fact that they are terminated with a [[null character]] ('\0'). This null-termination characteristic has historically created security problems related to the length of the string.
