in the first case it is pointer to a constant (i.e the
address can be changed ,where as the content/value in that
address cannot be changed).
In the later case it is a constant pointer (i.e the address
cannot be changed ,where as the content/value in that
address can be changed).

Answer / vignesh1988i
as for as i know.....
1) const char * :
here the character pointer is a constant which can point to
oly one character type memory location throught the program.
2) char * const :
hrere the pointer is not a constant , the character variable
used after it will be constant.. in that variable we cant
make any changes... but in pointer we can make
thank you
