Thread: Urgent help in finding the length

Hello all,

I need help with finding the length of the string input by the user.

It prints out 100 each time.

Also i cannot use the strlen function

Also is there a way that each of those strings can be converted to single characters? like each of s can be assigned to a char?

Thank You for ur help...

Code:

#include <stdio.h>

#define MAX 100

int main( int argc, char *argv[]) {
    char s[MAX];
    int i, j=0;
//    char c;

    printf("Enter a string\n");
    fgets(s, MAX, stdin);

    for(i =0; i<MAX; i++ ) {
       s[MAX] = j;
       j++;
    }

    printf("The repetition of this line is:");
    puts(s);

    printf("The length is %d.\n", j);
    return 0;

}
