C String Functions: A Quick Overview

This article provides a quick overview of several commonly used C string manipulation functions: `strlen()` gets the length of a string; `strcpy()` copies strings; `strcat()` concatenates strings; `strncat()` safely concatenates a specified number of characters; `strcmp()` compares strings; `strcspn()` finds the first character not in a specified set; `strerror()` gets the error message for an error code; `memchr()` finds a value in a memory block; and `strrev()` (non-standard) reverses a string. Mastering these functions is crucial for efficient C programming.
