In the context of arrays of strings, I've read that using strings is RAM intensive. So is this ... const int apple = 1; const int box = 2; const int carnage = 3; const int delicious = 4; int something[4] = {apple, box, carnage, delicious}; ... a valid alternative for this ... char something[4] =…

Okay then. An array of 4 ints takes up more RAM than an array of 4 chars. If the answer is still not satisfactory, ask a better question.

I wasn't going to mention it, but we might leave our OP thinking the \0 was implicit. Whole threads have lived and died around that assumption!
