I want these two print functions to do the same thing:

    unsigned int Arraye[] = {0xffff,0xefef,65,66,67,68,69,0};
            char Arrage[] = {0xffff,0xefef,65,66,67,68,69,0};
    printf("%s", (char*)(2+ Arraye));
    printf("%s", (char*)(2+ Arrage));

where Array is an unsigned int. Normally, I would change the type but, the problem is that most of the array is numbers, although the particular section should be printed as ASCII.
