Description

copies string source to string target, pointer based 2

void strcpy(char *target, char *source)
{
  while(*target++ = *source++)
     ;                                               /* null statement */
}

}

int main(void)
{
   char *str = "this is a  test";
   char s[80];/*  w  w  w  . j  av a 2 s . co m*/

   strcpy(s, str);
