String Handling Functions in C

In C language, an array of characters is known as a string. It has the following syntax :


 char sk[15]; // It declares a string array with 15 characters.

There are four types of String Handling Functions in the C language.


1. strlen()
2. strcpy()
3. strcat()
4. strcmp()

strlen(): This function is used to find the length of a character string.


Syntax:
 int n;
 char sk[15]="Las Vegas";
 n=strlen(sk);
strcpy(): This function is used to copy a character string to a character variable.
Syntax:
 char sk[15];
 strcpy(sk, "Las Vegas");
strcat(): This function is used to join character strings.
Syntax:
 char sk[15]="Las Vegas";
 char pin[10]="88905";
 strcat(sk,pin);
strcmp(): This function is used to compare two character strings.
Syntax:
 char sk[15]="Las Vegas";
 char rp[15]=" New York";
 strcmp(sk,rp);

C program to count number of


vowels in a string
 #include<stdio.h>
 #include<conio.h>
 #include<string.h>
 void main()
 {
 char sk[10];
 int count=0,i;
 clrscr();
 printf("Enter a String :");
 gets(sk);
 for(i=0;i<strlen(sk);i++)
 switch(sk[i])
 {
 case 'A':
 case 'E':
 case 'I':
 case 'O':
 case 'U':
 case 'a':
 case 'e':
 case 'i':
 case 'o':
 case 'u': count++;
 break;
 }
 printf("Vowels are present in the string : %d", count);
 getch();
 }
Output:

C Program to Check whether the


Given String is a Palindrome
 #include<stdio.h>
 #include<conio.h>
 #include<string.h>
 void main()
 {
 char sk[15], rp[15];
 int i, j;
 clrscr();
 printf("Enter the string :");
 scanf("%s",sk);
 i=0;
 j=strlen(sk)-1;
 while(j>=0)
 {
 rp[i]=sk[j];
 i++;
 j--;
 }
 rp[i]='\0';
 if(strcmp(sk,rp)==0)
 printf("%s is a palindrome string",sk);
 else
 printf("%s is not a palindrome string",sk);
 getch();
 }
Output:

C Program to Concatenate Two


Strings without using strcat()
 #include<stdio.h>
 #include<conio.h>
 #include<string.h>
 void main()
 {
 char sk[10], rk[10], st[20];
 int i,j;
 clrscr();
 printf("Enter first string :");
 scanf("%s",sk);
 printf("Enter second string :");
 scanf("%s",rk);
 i=0;
 j=0;
 while(sk[i]!='\0')
 {
 st[j]=sk[j];
 i++;
 j++;
 }
 st[j]=' ';
 j++;
 i=0;
 while(rk[i]!='\0')
 {
 st[j]=rk[i];
 i++;
 j++;
 }
 st[j]='\0';
 printf("The Resultant string is %s",st);
 getch();
 }
Output:
C Program to Convert Lowercase
to Uppercase
 #include<stdio.h>
 #include<conio.h>
 #include<string.h>
 void main()
 {
 char sk[15];
 int i;
 clrscr();
 printf("Enter a string :");
 gets(sk);
 for(i=0;i<strlen(sk);i++)
 if(sk[i]>='a' && sk[i]<= 'z')
 sk[i]=sk[i]-32;
 printf("The converted upper case string is %s", sk);
 getch();
 }
Output:
