在 C++ 中初始化为常量的变量

问：

在下面的代码中，变量 gender 被初始化为常量，但编译器给出一个错误，即 const char 数据类型到 char 数据类型的转换无效。

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
    //initializing the variable
    int a;
    //declaring the variable
    a = 13;
    //data type: character, keyword: char, max size: 8 bits (1 byte)
    char gender;
    gender="Male";
    cout<<"This is character data type: "<<gender<<endl;
    //data type: integer, keyword: int, max size: 16 bits (2 bytes), range: -2^15-2^15 (-32768-32767)
    int age = 19;
    cout<<"This is int data type:"<<age<<endl;
    //data type: integer, keyword: short int, max size: 16 bits (2 bytes), range: -2^15-2^15 (-32768-32767)
    short int no = 12;
    cout<<"This is short int data type: "<<no<<endl;
    //data type: integer, keyword: long int, max size: 32 bits (4 bytes), range: -2^31-2^31 (-2147483648-2147483647)
    long int larger = 21233487;
    cout<<"This is long int data type: "<<larger<<endl;
    //data type: floating point, keyword: float, max size: 32 bits (4 bytes)
    float ab = 9.7;
    cout<<"This is a floating point data type decimal: "<<ab<<endl;
    //data type: floating point, keyword: double, max size: 64 bits (8 byte)
    double ac = 1232434.7666;
    cout<<"This is a double data type decimal:"<<ac<<endl;
    //data type: floating point, keyword: long double, max size: 80 bits (10 byte)
    long double ad = 1233284.79872;
    cout<<"This is a long double data type decimal:"<<ad<<endl;
    return 0;
}

这是我收到的错误：

C：\Users\Abdullah\Desktop\C++\Fundamentals\03_Variables 和数据 类型.cpp [错误] 从“常量字符*”到“字符”的转换无效 [-fpermissive]

我尝试在一行中初始化变量并在另一行中声明它，但没有任何变化。我浏览了所有代码，但没有发现任何产生错误的内容。
