instead of const char my_string[256] = "hello", we should use const char* my_string = "hello"
index_p
I created a const and a non_const variable. If a new array is allocated, we use index_p and free the non_const variable. If we can use the initial variable, index_p is NULL and we don't use the non_const variable.
String overflow
If a struct has a fixed-size string + some data, making an overflow in the string will corrupt data of the struct. So it is recommended to put strings at the end of structs, so that important data are less likely to be overwritten by s string overflow.
