Memory chunk operations - C Tutorial
From the course: C Standard Library
Memory chunk operations
- [Instructor] Here we have two very special functions in string.h which manipulate chunks of bytes in memory. The first one is memset, and it writes into the destination buffer in the first argument, the value in its second argument, sequentially as many times as specified in its count argument. Although the second argument has an integer type, it is treated as a unsigned char, meaning a single byte. Now, the second function us memcpy or mem copy, which copies a source buffer's content into a destination buffer. The number of bytes to copy is specified in the third argument.
