I was trying to make a code in C when I thought I need to make an empty array.
I did initially as always like
string s ;
and done but it showed me a segmentation fault.
So I searched for answers when I got a Stack Overflow code:
char s[10] = {'\0'};
// Source - https://stackoverflow.com/a/4142796
I just want to know how this works and why normal initialization doesn't?
I was solving a pset when I stumble crossed a very strange thing in debug "Segmentation fault (core dumped) ".
The context is that in main function i was trying to strlen value of a string in a variable and it shows error.
Can anybody explain what it means?

Lately, I have started to attend cs50x lectures of 2026 using edx since I didn't have anything to do during my summer vacations. I am also doing problem sets after completing the lecture.
I am currently on week 3, so should I actually submit my projects or not? (I was doing it for fun, but I am actively working too ...need opinions)
What are your views on strings being used to widely, yet it is not a data type in C? (I think its non-primitive for most programming languages)
Does anybody know if it is possible to initialize and assign values to the variables in C using loops?
Edit: For example, if I want to use 5 variables (assume x1 to x5) so is there any way I can use for loop to use the value of i = 1 . Hence , it just initializes x1 to x5 later receives the values but without an array.
