(String Copy)

In the C Programming Language, the strcpy function copies the string pointed to by s2 into the object pointed to by s1. It returns a pointer to the destination.

Syntax

The syntax for the strcpy function is:

char *strcpy(char *s1, const char *s2);

s1 is an array where s2 will be copied to.
s2 is the string to be copied.

Returns

The strcpy function returns s1.
