[Dev-C++] pointer help

[Noorez K. <coo...@ho...>]

Need some help understanding pointers.

I can understand this

int main()
{
   char charArray[10];
   char* pArray = charArray;
   for(int i =0; i <10; i++)
   {
     *pArray ='\0';
      pArray++;
   }
}

I don't inderstand this. It came from a book I am reading

char* pszMonth;
pszMonth = "January";

this is just a bit of code. But I don't see how this can be. First how can 
you make the assignment without the * and how can you put a string in a char 
pointer. A char like that should only hold one character.
