Hello,
I ultimately want to concatenate two strings using pointers. For some reason I get a segmentation fault as I try to "debug". Can someone tell my why I get this segfault? Thanks!!
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
char* strcopy(char* str_1, char* str_2){
int idx_2 = 0;
int idx_1 = 0;
char* both;
for (; *(str_1 + idx_1) != '\0'; idx_1++){
*(both + idx_1) = *(str_1 + idx_1);
}
for (; *(str_2 + idx_2) != '\0'; idx_2++){
*(both + idx_1 + idx_2) = *(str_1 + idx_1 + idx_2);
}
*(both + idx_1 + idx_2 + 1) = '\0';
return both;
}
int main(){
char *a = "hello";
char *b = "greetings";
printf("%s\n", a);
for (int i = 0; *(a + i) != '\0'; i++){
*(a + i) = 'b';
}
printf("%s\n", a);
//printf("%s\n", strcopy(a, b);
return 0;
}
