Name
strcat, strncat - concatenate two strings
Synopsis
#include <string.h>
char *strcat(char *dest, const char *src);
char *strncat(char *dest, const char *src, size_t n);
Description
The strcat() function appends the src string to the dest string overwriting the '\0' character at the end of dest, and then adds a terminating '\0' character. The strings may not overlap, and the dest string must have enough space for the result.
The strncat() function is similar, except that it will use at most n characters from src. Since the result is always terminated with '\0', at most n+1 characters are written.
Return Value
The strcat() and strncat() functions return a pointer to the resulting string dest.
