Assertion (A) : char str[] = "paper"
'str' acts as a constant pointer to a string.
Reason (R) : *P = "Paper"
"P" acts as a pointer to a constant string.
Answer: B
Both statements are true but the reason does not explain the assertion, which is option (B). In char str[] = "paper" the name str is the address of the first element of the array and cannot be changed, so it behaves as a constant pointer to the string. In the reason, P is a pointer that is made to point at a string constant, so it is a pointer to a constant string. The two describe different declarations, so one does not explain the other, which rules out (A), and neither statement is false, which rules out (C) and (D).
