How to implement the strcpy function without using the c++ <string> library?

Question

I was unable to develop an effective code, since I do not understand the language as I should. It doesn’t leave that part : char *strcopy(char *destination, char *origin)

Answer 1

The documentation says that the strcpy function does the following:

Copies the Character string pointed to by src, including the null Terminator, to the Character array Whose first element is pointed to by dest.

So, with a simple while, I copy the source to the target until I copy null Terminator ' 0'.

char* strcpy2(char* dest, const char* source)
{
    int i = 0;

    while ((dest[i] = source[i]) != '\0')
    {
        i++;
    }

    return dest;
}
