c - How can I get the nth character of a string?

Question

I have a string,

char* str = "HELLO"

If I wanted to get just the E from that how would I do that?

Answer 1

char* str = "HELLO";
char c = str[1];

Keep in mind that arrays and strings in C begin indexing at 0 rather than 1, so "H" is str[0], "E" is str[1], the first "L" is str[2] and so on.
