C++ Program to Copy Strings
In this example, we will learn to copy strings (both string objects and C-style strings).
To understand this example, you should have the knowledge of the following C++ programming topics:
Example 1: Program to Copy String Object
You can simply copy string objects in C++ using = assignment operator.
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
string s1, s2;
cout << "Enter string s1: ";
getline (cin, s1);
s2 = s1;
cout << "s1 = "<< s1 << endl;
cout << "s2 = "<< s2;
return 0;
}Output
Enter string s1: C++ Strings s1 = C++ Strings s2 = C++ Strings
Example 2: Program to Copy C-Strings
To copy c-strings in C++, strcpy() function is used.
#include <iostream>
#include <cstring>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
char s1[100], s2[100];
cout << "Enter string s1: ";
cin.getline(s1, 100);
strcpy(s2, s1);
cout << "s1 = "<< s1 << endl;
cout << "s2 = "<< s2;
return 0;
}Output
Enter string s1: C-Strings s1 = C-Strings s2 = C-Strings
