Examples

The following example demonstrates the strcpy () function is used.

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

int main()
{
   char src[40];
   char dest[100];
  
   memset(dest, '\0', sizeof(dest));
   strcpy(src, "This is w3cschool.cc");
   strcpy(dest, src);

   printf("最终的目标字符串: %s\n", dest);
   
   return(0);
}

Let's compile and run the above program, which will result in the following:
