(d) Write a program that extracts part of the given string from the specified position. For example, if the sting is "Working with strings is fun", then if from position 4, 4 characters are to be extracted then the program should return string as "king". Moreover, if the position from where the string is to be extracted is given and the number of characters to be extracted is 0 then the program should extract entire string from the specified position.

Two-dimensional array, Array of pointers to strings
[E] Answer the following: 

E (a) How many bytes in memory would be occupied by the following array of pointers to strings? How many bytes would be required to store the same strings, if they are stored in a two-dimensional character array? char *mess[ ] = { "Hammer and tongs", "Tooth and nail", "Spit and polish", "You and C" } ;

[F] Attempt the following:

F (a) Write a program that uses an array of pointers to strings str[ ]. Receive two strings str1 and str2 and check if str1 is embedded in any of the strings in str[ ]. If str1 is found, then replace it with str2. char *str[ ] = { "We will teach you how to...", "Move a mountain", "Level a building", "Erase the past", "Make a million", "...all through C!" } ; For example if str1 contains "mountain" and str2 contains "car", then the second string in str should get changed to "Move a car".

F (c) Write a program to reverse the strings stored in the following array of pointers to strings: char *s[ ] = { "To err is human...", "But to really mess things up...", "One needs to know C!!" } ; Hint: Write a function xstrrev ( string ) which should reverse the contents of one string. Call this function for reversing each string stored in s.

F (e) Modify the above program suitably so that once the calendar for a particular month and year has been displayed on the screen, then using arrow keys the user must be able to change the calendar in the following manner: Up arrow key : Next year, same month Down arrow key : Previous year, same month Right arrow key : Same year, next month Left arrow key : Same year, previous month If the escape key is hit then the procedure should stop. Hint: Use the getkey( ) function discussed in Chapter 8, problem number [L](c).

F (f) A factory has 3 division and stocks 4 categories of products. An inventory table is updated for each division and for each product as they are received. There are three independent suppliers of products to the factory: (a) Design a data format to represent each transaction. (b) Write a program to take a transaction and update the inventory. (c) If the cost per item is also given write a program to calculate the total inventory values.

F (g) A dequeue is an ordered set of elements in which elements may be inserted or retrieved from either end. Using an array simulate a dequeue of characters and the operations retrieve left, retrieve right, insert left, insert right. Exceptional conditions such as dequeue full or empty should be indicated. Two pointers (namely, left and right) are needed in this simulation.
