Why does the following program runs and works correctly
=============================================
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
char a = 'a'; / * One byte*/
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
printf("%s", &a);
/* Prints a */
/* Undefined behaviour on a*/
strcpy (&a, "HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO");
printf("%s", &a);
/* Should not print HELOOOO...... correctly */
/*i Think it must print H */
return 0;
}
I have copied a full string into a char and prints that string
correctly ?
Each of your printfs invokes undefined behaviour. So does the
strcpy line. That includes actually printing the value out, on
your machine, at this time.
