Well, better let's look at the example.
First, let's make the sequence of 62 characters.
Now we have 62 characters per line (Excluding the first line with the character $'\n').
Let's see how many combinations of 2 characters are possible.
Subtract 1 ($'\n') from the resulting value, and we get the number 3844 variants.
Add chili pepper to three and get...
And the time spent by my laptop will be
And the last option of the four elements. Prevent you from even running this command!
for the time being the command almost paralyzed my laptop.
And this is only a combination of 4 items from 62
Thanks for attention.

--> res_alpha = 'S' and res_numeric = '053' ... (1 Reply)
Okay I will let users input spaces as well :)

Hi,
I would like to be able to parse out a substring matching a basic pattern, which is a character followed by 3 or 4 digits (for example S1234 out of a larger string). The main string would just be a filename, like Thisis__the FileName_S1234_ToParse.txt. The filename isn't fixed, but the... (2 Replies)

strncpy
strncpy(9r)strncpy(9r)NAME
strncpy - General: Copies a null-terminated character string with a specified limit
SYNOPSIS
char * strncpy(
char *s1,
char *s2,
int n );
ARGUMENTS
Specifies a pointer to a buffer of at least n bytes. Specifies a pointer to a string (an array of characters terminated by a null charac-
ter). Specifies the number of characters to be copied.
DESCRIPTION
The strncpy routine copies string s2 to buffer s1. The routine stops copying after it copies a null character or n characters, whichever
comes first. If the length of s2 as determined by the null character is less than n, the routine pads s1 with null characters.
RETURN VALUES
The strncpy routine returns a pointer to /NULL at the end of the first string (or to the location following the last copied character if
there is no NULL). The copied string will not be null terminated if the length of s2 is n characters or more.
SEE ALSO
Routines: bcopy(9r), blkclr(9r), copystr(9r), ovbcopy(9r), strcpy(9r)strncpy(9r)
