  For the first one, u have answer in question itself, there is no place for null character. So, when compiler starts printing the string and it doesnt find any null character, it doesnt know where to stop, ergo garbage value.
  And i didnt get the second question, what error r u getting in C???

  #include
  #include
  void main()
  {
  char name[5]="sajan";
  
  printf("%s",name);
  
  getch();
  
  }
  
  output:
  
  sajan with a grbage value...................
  
  que1:-where it store the null character if size is equal to the characters entered?
  
  que2:-if we take even size nd same number of character then it wil genrate error in c, bt not in c++.why this heppens...
  
  explain me logic plzzzzzz...................\

  have you tried this c program in unix? my friend it is not c or c++, it is compiler. turbo c compiler does not consider appending a null once you press enter after scanf. so to avoid this, they have given the facility of 'gets'
