Answer 1

a) char string1[3] = {“1”, “2”, ‘3’, 4}

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given options the option a is not a valid declaration.

We are declaring an array of characters string1 also known as c string.Whose size is 3.So it can only hold 3 characters and the third character should be Null(\0) character and we are providing it 4 elements from which 2 of them are strings,one is character and an integer 4.
