Explain the difference between direct characterization and indirect characterization?

Direct characterization is when the author explicitly describes the character's traits and qualities, while indirect characterization reveals the character through their actions, thoughts, and dialogue. Direct characterization tells the reader what the character is like, while indirect characterization allows the reader to infer the character's traits based on their behavior and interactions with others.
