strlen.c

Many C samples. It is a good sample for students to learn C language.

    Defines: strlen()

    strlen(s) returns the number of characters in s, that is, the number
    of non-NUL characters found before the closing NULEosCh.  Note: some
    non-standard C compilers for 32-bit machines take int to be 16 bits,
    either put up with short strings or change int  to  long  throughout
    this package.  Better yet, BOYCOTT such shoddy compilers.
    Beware: the asm version works only if strlen(s) < 65536.
