String Copy
Description
The strncpy function copies up to n characters from s2 into s1. If s2 is n
characters long or longer, the null character that terminates s2 is not co-
pied. If you attempt to copy characters from overlapping strings, the func-
tion's behavior is undefined.
If s2 is shorter than n characters, strncpy
appends null characters to s
1
so that s
1
contains n characters. The func-
tion returns the value of s 1.
