To get the first 10 characters, use the substring() method. string res = str. Substring(0, 10);
slice() method to get the first N characters of a string, e.g. str. slice(0, 3) . The slice() method takes the start and stop indexes as parameters and returns a new string containing a slice of the original string.
string str = yourStringVariable. Substring(0,5);
To access the first n characters of a string in Python, we can use the subscript syntax [ ] by passing 0:n as an arguments to it. 0 is the starting position of an index. n is the number of characters we need to extract from the starting position (n is excluded).
char myString[256]; // Input string
char dest[256]; // Destination string
strncpy(dest, myString, 10);
dest[10] = 0; // null terminate destination
char source[] = "abcdefthijklmn";
char target[100];
strncpy(target, source, 10);
target[10] = '\0'; // IMPORTANT!
Adding to the above answers:
char* someString = "your string goes here";
int main()
{
int n = 10;
printf("(%.*s)\n", n, someString);
return 0;
}
