CHAR类型是固定长度的，长度范围为0到255。如果存储的值不覆盖字段长度，存储数据的其他的部分会在值的右边自动添加空格。
VARCHAR字段中的值是可变长度的字符串，长度范围为0到65535。VARCHAR字段的值以1字节或2字节的长度前缀加上数据的方式存储。长度前缀指示了字段存储的字节数，如果一个字段存储的值不超过255字节，它使用一个长度前缀，如果字段存储的值超过了255字节，它使用两个长度前缀。
如果没有启用严格SQL模式，分配给CHAR或VARCHAR字段超过字段最大长度的值，这个值会被截断保存到数据库中，并会产生一个警告。对于VARCHAR字段来说，不管使用什么样的SQL模式，分配给VARCHAR字段超过字段最大长度的值，在值插入前，超过字段最大长度的部分会被截断，并会产生一个警告。对于CHAR字段来说，不管使用什么样的SQL模式，超过字段最大长度的部分会被截断，并隐式插入到数据库中。
