Program to create and print an array of string in C

In this tutorial, we will discuss the concept of program to create and print array of string in C

In this topic, we are going to learn how to create, read and print array of string in C programming language using for loop while loop and do-while loop

We have already discuss that “What is an array“, type of arrays and how to access it

Arrays are the special type of variables to store Multiple type of values(int, string,char, etc)under the same name in the continuous memory location. we can be easily accessed through the indices(indexes)

To understand this example, you should have the knowledge of the following C programming topics

Two dimension array in C language

For loop in C programming language

While loop in C programming language

Do-while loop in C programming language

Code to create and print array of string

Read and print array of string Using for loop

In this program, we are briefing how to input(create and read) strings of an array and then print them using for loop in C language

Program 1

#include <stdio.h>
#define MAX_STRINGS 10
#define STRING_LENGTH 50
int main()
{
    char strings[MAX_STRINGS][STRING_LENGTH];
    int i,n;
    printf("Enter Total Number Of String: ");
    scanf("%d",&n);

    printf("\nEnter strings\n");
    for(i=0; i<n; i++){//for loop for input String
        printf("String[%d]: ",i+1);
        getchar();
        scanf("%[^\n]s",strings[i]);
    }
    printf("\nEntered strings are:\n");
    for(i=0; i<n; i++){//for loop for output entered String
        printf("[%2d]: %s\n",i+1,strings[i]);

    }
    getch();
    return 0;
}

When the above code is executed, it produces the following result

Read and print array of string Using while loop

In this program, we are briefing how to input strings of an array and then print them using while loop in C language

Program 2

#include <stdio.h>
#define MAX_STRINGS 10
#define STRING_LENGTH 50
int main()
{
    char strings[MAX_STRINGS][STRING_LENGTH];
    int i,n;
    printf("Enter Total Number Of String: ");
    scanf("%d",&n);

    printf("\nEnter strings\n");
    i=0;
    while(i<n){
        printf("String[%d]: ",i+1);
        getchar();
        scanf("%[^\n]s",strings[i]);
        i++;
    }
    printf("\nEntered strings are:\n");
    i=0;
    while(i<n){
        printf("[%2d]: %s\n",i+1,strings[i]);
i++;
    }
    getch();
    return 0;
}

When the above code is executed, it produces the following result

Program 3

#include <stdio.h>
#define MAX_STRINGS 10
#define STRING_LENGTH 50
int main()
{
    char strings[MAX_STRINGS][STRING_LENGTH];
    int i,n;
    printf("Enter Total Number Of String: ");
    scanf("%d",&n);

    printf("\nEnter strings\n");
    i=0;
   do{
        printf("String[%d]: ",i+1);
        getchar();
        scanf("%[^\n]s",strings[i]);
        i++;
    } while(i<n);
    printf("\nEntered strings are:\n");
    i=0;
  do{
        printf("[%2d]: %s\n",i+1,strings[i]);
i++;
    }  while(i<n);
    getch();
    return 0;
}

When the above code is executed, it produces the following result
