Here's a simple implementation of a custom desired length string copy function. This function copies a string into another upto a desired length.
#include<stdio.h> #include<stdlib.h> #include<string.h> int main() { char *source; char *target; char *ret; int no_of_char; /*function prototype it takes string and returns address*/ char *my_strncpy(char *target1,const char *source1,int no); source=(char*)malloc(20); target=(char*)malloc(20); printf("enter the string to be copied:\n"); fgets(source,20,stdin); //taking input from user printf("\nenter the number of characters to be copied:"); scanf("%d",&no_of_char); ret=my_strncpy(target,source,no_of_char); printf("\nThe address of copy of string is %d ",ret ); //print the address of copt of string printf("\nThe copied string is %s \n", ret); //print the copy of string free(source); free(target); return EXIT_SUCCESS; } char * my_strncpy(char *target1,const char *source1,int no) { char *tempt=target1; int n=0; while(n<no) { *target1=*source1; target1++; source1++; n++; } *target1='\0'; return tempt; }
