C# Programming Strings
Choose an option
  • A
    int xstrlen(char *s) { int length=0; while(*s!='\0') { length++; s++; } return (length); }
  • B
    int xstrlen(char s) { int length=0; while(*s!='\0') length++; s++; return (length); }
  • C
    int xstrlen(char *s) { int length=0; while(*s!='\0') length++; return (length); }
  • D
    int xstrlen(char *s) { int length=0; while(*s!='\0') s++; return (length); }

Answer

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

Explanation

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", xstrlen(d));
    return 0;
}

Output: Length = 8
