1.0050 If I have two strings called mystring1 and mystring2, and two integers called myinteger1 and myinteger2, and I can issue the command myinteger2 = myinteger1; why can’t I issue the command mystring2 = mystring1?

Scalar variables (single characters, integers, reals) can be moved directly. Arrays (including strings) must be moved element by element (function strcpy in header file <string.h> performs this function)
