>char a = 'abcde' would be legal right?
If the implementation allows a character literal like that then it's perfectly legal. However, the result is not the same as an array consisting of the characters 'a','b','c', and 'd' in any case.
>Or can a single char only hold 1 char?
Obviously, a single char can only hold a single char value. Anything else is just silly.
>Since an int can hold 123456789.
Maybe, maybe not. A 16-bit int can't hold that value, but a 32-bit int can.
