A char is not guaranteed to be one byte long (the only thing the standard guarantees is that it can take at least 255 different values), and nobody is saying it's ``equal to an int''.
A string literal is not strictly the same thing as an array of chars with a terminating '\0' (which I assume is what you meant when you said ``/n'').

If people bought their books instead of all downloading the same crappy PDF scan we wouldn't even be having this discussion.
