2) Character arrays can be declared by attaching a $ sign immediately after the
array variable name. The storable character length of a character array is a
maximum of seven characters.
If
an attempt is made to assign a character
string with more than seven characters, all beyond seven characters will be
disregarded .

same size are declared, contents of all array variables will become 0 or null.
