What will be the output of the program ?
#include<stdio.h>
#include<string.h>
int main()
{
static char str1[] = "dills";
static char str2[20];
static char str3[] = "Daffo";
int i;
i = strcmp(strcat(str3, strcpy(str2, str1)), "Daffodills");
printf("%d\n", i);
return 0;
}

i = strcmp(strcat(str3, strcpy(str2, str1)), "Daffodills");
first it will copy str1 to str2.and then by string concatinating str3 with str2..it will give Daffodills.after that string comparision between to strings.these two strings are same.so strcmp of this two strings gives 0 value...that's enough about this programme...

You all please run this code. It will give some negative result cause static char str3[] = "Daffo";memory is fixed. So this concatination is not possible. Target string should have enough memory.

static is used just to confuse the students, it dosen't make any difference. static is a type of storage classs.

All strings declare in static it cannot modifie. So zero is answer.

Will str3 array can store dills also?? I think not as its size is just 6 byte.
So I dont agree with answer...!!!

step 1: strcpy(str2,str1) cpoy the str1="dills" into str2.
step 2: strcat(str3,str2) append the dills at the end of Daffo.
step 3: strcmp(str3,"Daffodils") returns the no. of charecters of str3 which are not find in Daffodills.
step 4: since both strings are same so results will be 0(zero)
