strncat

#include <stdlib.h>
    char *strncat(char *dest, const char *src, size_t n);

appends the src string to the dest string, overwriting the null byte ('\0') at the end of dest, and then adds a terminating null byte. The strings may not overlap, and the dest string must have enough space for the result.
