How can I replace a character in a string in C?

if you know where in the string the character is, then its as simple as just writing over it. If you dont know where it is, then you have to do a loop and search through the string to find it, then write over it.





example 1: The string char mystring[] = "Hello World." you want to replace the . with !. your code would be:


mystring[11] = '!';


the . is the 11'th element in the string.





example 2: you want to replace . with !, but dont know where it is in the string. the code would be:





for (int count = 0; count %26lt; sizeof(mystring); count++)


{


if (mystring[count] == '.')


{


mystring[count] = '!';


break;


}


}

delete tat character and add another
Reply:You have to loop through each character in that string and replace it with a character of your desire.





Ex:


for(x = 0; x %26lt; strlen(text); x++)


{


text[x] = 'X';


}
