Parameters passed to character functions are integers that are lower order bytes. These function convert
the arguments to unsigned char, that will converted to integers at the time of call. The array overflow has to be taken care
by the coders to prevent any issues with C++ program.
Following table lists few String and Character functions of C++ Standard function Library.
