The document contains two C programs: the first program performs string operations such as finding length, copying, comparing, and pattern matching without using built-in functions, while the second program reads student names and roll numbers from the user and stores them in a file. Each string operation is implemented as a separate function, and the student data is structured using a struct. The programs include user input handling and file operations.

Part A

1. Develop a program in C for operations on strings like finding the string of length
copying two strings comparing two strings and pattern matching and replacing support
the program with function for each of the above operation don't use built in functions

#include <stdio.h>

// Function to find the length of a string

int string_length(char str[]) {

int length = 0;

while (str[length] != '\0') {

length++;

return length;

// Function to compare two strings

int string_compare(char str1[], char str2[]) {

int i = 0;

while (str1[i] != '\0' && str2[i] != '\0') {

if (str1[i] != str2[i]) {

return 0; // Strings are not equal

i++;

if (str1[i] == '\0' && str2[i] == '\0') {

return 1; // Strings are equal

return 0; // Strings are not equal

}
// Function to copy one string to another

void string_copy(char source[], char destination[]) {

int i = 0;

while (source[i] != '\0') {

destination[i] = source[i];

i++;

destination[i] = '\0'; // Null terminate the destination string

// Function to perform pattern matching (search for a substring in a string)

int string_match(char str[], char pattern[]) {

int i, j;

int n = string_length(str);

int m = string_length(pattern);

// Loop over the main string

for (i = 0; i <= n - m; i++) {

// Check for a match of the pattern

for (j = 0; j < m; j++) {

if (str[i + j] != pattern[j]) {

break;

if (j == m) { // Full match found

return i; // Return starting index of the match

}
}

return -1; // No match found

int main() {

char str1[100], str2[100], pattern[100];

// Input strings

printf("Enter first string: ");

fgets(str1, sizeof(str1), stdin);

// Remove newline character added by fgets

str1[string_length(str1) - 1] = '\0';

printf("Enter second string: ");

fgets(str2, sizeof(str2), stdin);

str2[string_length(str2) - 1] = '\0';

printf("Enter pattern to search: ");

fgets(pattern, sizeof(pattern), stdin);

pattern[string_length(pattern) - 1] = '\0';

// Test string length function

printf("Length of first string: %d\n", string_length(str1));

printf("Length of second string: %d\n", string_length(str2));

// Test string compare function

if (string_compare(str1, str2)) {

printf("Strings are equal.\n");


} else {

printf("Strings are not equal.\n");

// Test string copy function

char copied_string[100];

string_copy(str1, copied_string);

printf("Copied string: %s\n", copied_string);

// Test pattern matching function

int match_index = string_match(str1, pattern);

if (match_index != -1) {

printf("Pattern found at index %d.\n", match_index);

} else {

printf("Pattern not found.\n");

return 0;

2. write a C program to read the name and roll number of n students from the user and
store this data in a file.

#include <stdio.h>

#include <stdlib.h>

struct Student {

char name[50];

int rollNumber;
};

int main() {

FILE *file;

int n;

// Ask the user for the number of students

printf("Enter the number of students: ");

scanf("%d", &n);

// Open the file in write mode

file = fopen("students.txt", "w");

if (file == NULL) {

printf("Error opening the file!\n");

return 1;

// Declare a variable of type struct Student

struct Student student;

// Read details of each student and write to the file

for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {

printf("Enter name of student %d: ", i + 1);

scanf("%s", student.name); // Using scanf for name input

printf("Enter roll number of student %d: ", i + 1);

scanf("%d", &student.rollNumber);
// Write student data to the file

fprintf(file, "Student %d: Name = %s, Roll Number = %d\n", i + 1, student.name,


student.rollNumber);

// Close the file

fclose(file);

printf("Student data has been written to the file.\n");

return 0;
