11.2 Library String Functions

With a data type defined, we may now proceed to define functions to implement the operations on data of this type. As mentioned above, the C built-in library provides a rich set of string processing functions. We describe some of the more common ones here; others are described in Appendix .

• 11.2.1 String I/O: gets() and puts()
• 11.2.2 String Manipulation: strlen() and strcpy()
• 11.2.3 String Operations: strcmp() and strcat()
• 11.2.4 String Conversion Functions
• 11.2.5 File I/O with Strings
