C strcpy function copies *str2 into *str1. *str2 must be a pointer to a null-terminated string. C strcpy function returns a pointer to str1.

Use C strcpy function to copy a string.


#include<string.h>
#include<stdio.h>
/*  w ww.j av a 2  s . c  o  m*/
int main(void){
  char str[80];
  strcpy(str, "hello");
  printf("%s", str);
