Arrays Code Challenge Step 1

"Declare 2 separate variables of type char named "alpha" and "bravo". Assign the letter 'a' to the variable "alpha" and the letter 'b' to "bravo"."

Trying to figure this out, been running some different ways of doing it but can't seem to figure it out.

What I've got 

char alpha[0];
alpha[0] = "a";


char bravo[0];
bravo[0] = "b";

"Declare 2 separate variables of type char named "alpha" and "bravo". Assign the letter 'a' to the variable "alpha" and the letter 'b' to "bravo"."

you almost have it right with 

alpha[0] = "a";

Remember, declaring and assigning a variable looks like this

datatype name = value;

so to declare a char variable

char zee = 'z';

Im not sure why you are using array syntax however.
