As Pascal points out, this really shows you haven't tried to answer this
very simple question yourself. As a starter, I'll be more generous than
Pascal and point you to http://www.adapower.com/ where you'll find some
online books and tutorials.
As an aside ask yourself, if /you/ were designing a language from
scratch would you include "null terminated strings"? Are they a good idea?
Cheers
