Replace a substring in a string.

Program to replace the given sub string from a string.



#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
  int ls,i,j,k,flag=0,olt,pos,lt;
  char st[20],sub[20];
  printf("Enter the string:");
  scanf("%[^\n]",st );
  printf("Enter the substring:");
  scanf("%s",sub );
  for(i=0;st[i]!='\0';i++);//to find the length of string
  ls=i;
  for(i=0;sub[i]!='\0';i++);//to find the length of string
  olt=i;
  if(olt<1||olt>ls)
  {
    printf("Not possible to replace\n" );
    return 0;
  }
  for(i=0;i<ls;)
  {
    j=0;
    while(st[i++]==sub[j++])
    {
      if(j==olt)
      {
        flag=1;
        pos=i-olt;
        break;
      }
    }
  }
  if(flag==1)
  {
    printf("Enter new substring:" );
    scanf("%s",sub );
    for(i=0;sub[i]!='\0';i++);
    lt=i;
    for(i=pos,j=0;j<lt;j++,i++)
    {
      if(j<olt)
      st[i]=sub[j];
      else
      {
        for(k=ls+1;k>i;k--)
        st[k]=st[k-1];
        st[ls+2]='\0';
        ls+=2;
        st[i]=sub[j];
      }
    }
    while(j<olt)
    {
      j++;
      for(k=i;st[k]!='\0';k++)
      st[k]=st[k+1];
    }
    printf("The string is: %s \n",st );
  }
  else
  printf("The substring not found\n" );
  return 1;
}
