Why does using the wrong format specifier in C crash my program on Windows 7?

Question

My program is as follows;

#include 
#include 

int main()
{
        char string[] = \"Gentlemen start your engines!\";
                


        

Answer 1

You have a problem here printf("That string is %s characters long.\r\n", strlen(string));

put

printf("That string is %d characters long.\r\n", strlen(string)); %d because you want to printthe length of str (strlen returns number)
