1.

Output and Justification:

Code:

int main() {

static char s[] = "Tendulkar";

char *p;

p = &s[8]-8;

while(*p)

printf("%c", *p++);

Explanation: s[8] points to the null character '\0', so &s[8]-8 gives the address of s[0], i.e., 'T'.

The loop prints the string from the beginning till the null character. Output: Tendulkar

2. Significance of argv[0]:

argv[0] contains the name of the program being executed. It helps identify the running program in

command-line arguments.

3. Prototype and usage of strcat():

Prototype: char *strcat(char *dest, const char *src);

It appends the src string to the dest string.

4. User-defined function to copy and reverse a string:

void copyAndReverse(char *src, char *dest) {

int len = 0;

while(src[len] != '\0') len++;

for(int i = 0; i < len; i++) dest[i] = src[len - 1 - i];

dest[len] = '\0';

5. C program to display the longest word from 'n' words:

Read 'n' words in a loop and track the word with maximum length using strlen().

6. C program to check palindrome:


Compare characters from start and end moving toward the center. If all match, it's a palindrome.

7. Program to accept and search name from array of strings:

Use a loop to compare each name in the array with the search string using strcmp().

8. Command-line argument:

It allows passing parameters to main() during execution.

Advantages: flexibility, dynamic input, automation.

9. User-defined function to copy one string:

void copyString(char *src, char *dest) {

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

*dest = '\0';

10. Program to check odd/even using command-line:

Convert argv[1] to integer and check if number % 2 == 0.

11. Convert string to uppercase:

void toUpperCase(char *str) {

while(*str) {

if(*str >= 'a' && *str <= 'z') *str -= 32;

str++;

12. Description and syntax:

i. strlwr(): Converts string to lowercase. Syntax: char *strlwr(char *str);

ii. strupr(): Converts string to uppercase. Syntax: char *strupr(char *str);

iii. strlen(): Returns length of string. Syntax: size_t strlen(const char *str);

iv. strchr(): Finds first occurrence of character. Syntax: char *strchr(const char *str, int c);
