26. PF - Passing CString to Functions | Calculating Length | Why is it similar to Pass by Reference?

Computing Education Hub

Explore how C strings are passed to functions and how to manipulate and measure them in C++. This tutorial dives into the mechanics of passing C strings to functions, illustrating that while the address of the string is passed by value, the effect is similar to passing by reference due to direct memory access. We'll walk through a practical example where we modify a C string inside a function and see the changes reflected in the main program.

In this tutorial, we will cover:

The concept of passing C strings to functions in C++, focusing on why it behaves like pass by reference.
How to manipulate the elements of a C string within a function and observe the impact on the original string.
Stepbystep code to calculate the length of a C string within a function and return this value to the main program.
Best practices for handling C strings in function calls to avoid common pitfalls and ensure efficient memory usage.

This video is perfect for beginners who are learning about string manipulation in C++ and for those looking to understand more about memory management with arrays.

Who This Video Is For:
C++ beginners interested in learning more about strings and arrays.
Students in computer science courses covering basic data structures and memory management.
Programmers who want to improve their understanding of C++ functions and array handling.
