String operation such as strcat(s, t), strcmp(s, t), strcpy(s, t) and strlen(s) rely heavily upon

  • A.Presence of NULL character
  • B.Presence of new-line character
  • C.Presence of any escape sequence
  • D.None of the mentioned

Answer: A

Correct answer: Presence of NULL character

Every one of them finds the end of a string by looking for the terminating null - there is no stored length. A string that has lost its null makes all of them read past the end of the array, which is the single commonest cause of memory corruption in C.
