strlen + terminating null character

[lasek]

Hi all, a simple question, please look this code below:

char acName[]="Claudio" // My name
unsigned int uiLen;

uiLen=strlen(acName);

printf("Lenght of acName [%d]",uiLen);

printf("Display acName[iLenLenght of acName [%d]",uiLen);

printf("Lenght of acName [%d]",uiLen);

lasek <cl**************@acrm.it> spoke thus:

char acName[]="Claudio" // My name
unsigned int uiLen; uiLen=strlen(acName); printf("Lenght of acName [%d]",uiLen); printf("Display acName[iLenLenght of acName [%d]",uiLen); printf("Lenght of acName [%d]",uiLen);

What's the question? All three printf's print the same number, which
is 7.

So, what is the question? Length is misspelled. The code is
incomplete and won't compile, but seems reasonable, apart from the
use of // comments (which are bad in usenet because of line wrap,
and invalid if you don't have a C99 compiler, which most don't).
You are also allowed to use blanks around such tokens as = or after
a comma. They don't cost much, and there is no shortage nor
environmental price.

In addition to the comments provided by others, you should use "%u" to
print an unsigned int, not "%d".

It looks like you meant to say more than you did. Say it, and we'll
respond.

We must do something. This is something. Therefore, we must do this.

It turns out he did, in his next post, but none of us noticed it
before responding to this one. Oh well.

Right, because he started a new thread.
