Algorithm

1. Input:
        Accept the source string as input.
        Determine the length of the source string.

2. Allocate Memory:
        Allocate memory for the destination string based on the length of the source string.

3. Copy Operation:

        Use a loop to iterate through each character of the source string.
        Copy each character to the corresponding position in the destination string.

4. Null Terminator:
       After copying all characters, add a null terminator ('\0') at the end of the destination string to mark its end.

5. Output:
        Display or use the copied string as needed.

Code Examples

#1 Code Example- C++ programing Copy String Object

Code - C++ Programming

#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;
}

#2 Code Example- C++ Programing Copy C-Strings

Code - C++ Programming

#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;
}
