Using strncpy() and string terminator
#include <iostream>
#include <string.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
char stringOne[80];
char stringTwo[10];
char stringThree[80];
stringOne[0]='\0';
stringTwo[0]='\0';
stringThree[0]='\0';
cout << "String One: " << stringOne << endl;
cout << "String Two: " << stringTwo << endl;
cout << "String Three: " << stringThree << endl;
cout << "Enter a long string: ";
cin.getline(stringOne,80);
strcpy(stringThree,stringOne);
cout << "\nString One: " << stringOne << endl;
cout << "String Two: " << stringTwo << endl;
cout << "String Three: " << stringThree << endl;
strncpy(stringTwo,stringOne,9);
cout << "\nString One: " << stringOne << endl;
cout << "String Two: " << stringTwo << endl;
cout << "String Three: " << stringThree << endl;
stringTwo[9]='\0';
cout << "\nString One: " << stringOne << endl;
cout << "String Two: " << stringTwo << endl;
cout << "String Three: " << stringThree << endl;
cout << "\nDone." << endl;
