The function strstr() Finds the first occurrence of a substring in another string

Declaration: char *strstr(const char *s1, const char *s2);

Return Value:
On success, strstr returns a pointer to the element in s1 where s2 begins (points to s2 in s1).
On error (if s2 does not occur in s1), strstr returns null.

Example:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

int main(void)
{
   char *str1 = "CuriousTab", *str2 = "ia", *ptr;

   ptr = strstr(str1, str2);
   printf("The substring is: %s\n", ptr);
   return 0;
}

Output: The substring is: iaCURIOUSTAB

The statement printf("\\n"); prints '\n' on the screen.

Declaration: char *strrchr(const char *s, int c);

It scans a string s in the reverse direction, looking for a specific character c.

Example:

#include <string.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
   char text[] = "I learn through CuriousTab.com";
   char *ptr, c = 'i';

   ptr = strrchr(text, c);
   if (ptr)
      printf("The position of '%c' is: %d\n", c, ptr-text);
   else
      printf("The character was not found\n");
   return 0;
}

Output:

The position of 'i' is: 19

Declaration:

char *strnset(char *s, int ch, size_t n); Sets the first n characters of s to ch

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

int main(void)
{
   char *string = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz";
   char letter = 'x';

   printf("string before strnset: %s\n", string);
   strnset(string, letter, 13);
   printf("string after  strnset: %s\n", string);

   return 0;
}

Output:

string before strnset: abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz

string after strnset: xxxxxxxxxxxxxnopqrstuvwxyz

Declaration: strcmp(const char *s1, const char*s2);

The strcmp return an int value that is

if s1 < s2 returns a value < 0

if s1 == s2 returns 0

if s1 > s2 returns a value > 0

int xstrlen(char *s)
{
    int length=0;
    while(*s!='\0')
    {    length++; s++; }
    return (length);
}

Option A is the correct function to find the length of given string.

Example:

#include<stdio.h>

int xstrlen(char *s)
{
    int length=0;
    while(*s!='\0')
    { length++; s++; }
    return (length);
}

int main()
{
    char d[] = "CuriousTab";
    printf("Length = %d\n", xstrlen(d));
    return 0;
}

Output: Length = 8

gets(); collects a string of characters terminated by a new line from the standard input stream stdin

#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
   char string[80];

   printf("Enter a string:");
   gets(string);
   printf("The string input was: %s\n", string);
   return 0;
}

Output:

Enter a string: CuriousTab

The string input was: CuriousTab

Step 1: char str1[20] = "Hello", str2[20] = " World"; The variable str1 and str2 is declared as an array of characters and initialized with value "Hello" and " World" respectively.

Step 2: printf("%s\n", strcpy(str2, strcat(str1, str2)));

=> strcat(str1, str2)) it append the string str2 to str1. The result will be stored in str1. Therefore str1 contains "Hello World".

=> strcpy(str2, "Hello World") it copies the "Hello World" to the variable str2.

Hence it prints "Hello World".

Step 1: char str1[] = "Hello"; The variable str1 is declared as an array of characters and initialized with a string "Hello".

Step 2: char str2[] = "Hello"; The variable str2 is declared as an array of characters and initialized with a string "Hello".

We have use strcmp(s1,s2) function to compare strings.

Step 3: if(str1 == str2) here the address of str1 and str2 are compared. The address of both variable is not same. Hence the if condition is failed.

Step 4: At the else part it prints "Unequal".
