Lab Experiment No. 7 Roll No. 10671
Date of Performance: Date of Submission:
Expt. Title a) To implement user defined string handling functions
b) Write a program to validate whether the accepted string is
palindrome or not

CO Mapping: CO4

Problem Definition: Implement string handling user defined functions - xstrlen(), xstrcpy() and
xstrcmp()

Objective of the Experiment: Understanding passing strings to functions and pointers.

Theory:
Strings in C are represented by arrays of characters. The end of the string is marked with a special
character, the null character. The null or string terminating character is represented by another
character sequence, \0 .

Declaring Strings To find length of string


char arrayname[size]; len=0;i=0;
Initializing Strings examples while(arrayname[i]!=’\0’)
char arrayname[size]=” I like C” ; len=len+1;
or printf(“length = %d”,len);
char arrayname[size]={'I',' ','l','i','k','e',' ','C'};
or
scanf(“%s”, arrayname);

Source code for the implementation.

#include <stdio.h>

int xstrlen(const char *str) {


int length = 0;
while (*str++) {
length++;
}
return length;
}

void xstrcpy(char *dest, const char *src) {


while ((*dest++ = *src++));
}

int xstrcmp(const char *str1, const char *str2) {


while (*str1 && (*str1 == *str2)) {
str1++;
str2++;
}
return *(unsigned char *)str1 - *(unsigned char *)str2;
}

int main() {
char str1[100], str2[100];
printf("Enter first string: ");
scanf("%s", str1);
printf("Enter second string: ");
scanf("%s", str2);
printf("Length of first string: %d\n", xstrlen(str1));
printf("Length of second string: %d\n", xstrlen(str2));

xstrcpy(str2, str1);
printf("After copying, second string: %s\n", str2);

int cmp = xstrcmp(str1, str2);


if (cmp == 0) {
printf("Strings are equal\n");
} else if (cmp < 0) {
printf("First string is less than second string\n");
} else {
printf("First string is greater than second string\n");
}

return 0;
}
Sample input and output
Test case 1:
Enter the string: Programming
Length of string is 11

Test Case 2:
Enter the string1 : Monday
Enter the string2: Monday
Strings are equal.

b) Definition: Write a program to validate whether the accepted string is palindrome or


not.
Source code for the implementation.

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

int main() {
char str[100], rev[100];
int len, i, j;

printf("Enter a string: ");


gets(str);

len = strlen(str);
for (i = 0, j = len - 1; i < len; i++, j--) {
rev[i] = str[j];
}
rev[i] = '\0';

if (strcmp(str, rev) == 0) {
printf("The string is a palindrome.\n");
} else {
printf("The string is not a palindrome.\n");
}

return 0;
}
Sample input and output
Test case 1:
Enter String: MADAM
String is Palindrome

Test case 2:
Enter String: TEST
String is Not a Palindrome

The program was tested for different sets of inputs.


Program is working is SATISFACTORY NOT SATISFACTORY ( Tick appropriate outcome)
