difference b/w char*x and char x[]

In char * x is the pointer pointing to the intial memory location and size of the pointer is not fix.
but in char x[] we have to initialize the array of fix size.

[Mr. Sumit kumar]

The difference here is that
char *x puts in the read-only parts of the memory and making x a pointer to that, making any writing operation on this memory illegal. While doing:
char x[] puts in read-only memory and copies to newly allocated memory on the stack.
