#include<stdio.h>
void astrcat(char s[], char t[]);  //to concatenate two string

main()
{
    int i=0,p=0,q=0,c;
    char s[100],t[100];
    while((c=getchar())!='\n')
    s[p++]=c;
    while((c=getchar())!='\n')
    t[q++]=c;
    astrcat(s,t);
    while(s[i]!='\0')
    printf("%c",s[i++]);
    return 0;
}
void astrcat(char s[],char t[])
{

       int i, j;

       i = j = 0;
       while (s[i] != '\0')       /* find end of s */
           i++;

       while ((s[i++] = t[j++]) != '\0') /* copy t */
           ;


}

The above code works fine but show some additional symbols after the concatenated string. I've checked it several times but am unable to spot the error. Pls run this code on ur system and let me know where lies the error.
Thanks in advance
R.S.V.P. :confused:

Null terminate the strings you read in (s and t).

working now. check it.
there were 3 errrors mentioned in comments in code
