The array of characters is called a string. “Hi”, “Hello”, and e.t.c are the examples of String. Similarly, the array of Strings is nothing but a two-dimensional (2D) array of characters. To declare an array of Strings in C, we must use the char data type.

Sample program to read the 2D array of characters or array of String in C

#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{

  // declaring and initializing 2D String
  char language[5][10] =
     {"Java", "Python", "C++", "HTML", "SQL"};

  // Dispaying strings
  printf("Languages are:\n");
  for(int i=0;i<5;i++)
  puts(language[i]);

  return 0;
}

Output:- Languages are: Java Python C++ HTML SQL
