It's not easy to express such an answer to the question how long is a piece of string as a direct word-based answer, but a good approximation would be: the length of a piece of string is usually about 4ft +/- 3ft.
This should not be confused with the size of the array that holds the string. defines an array of characters with a size of 100 chars, but the C string with which mystr has been initialized has a length of only 11 characters. Therefore, while sizeof(mystr) evaluates to 100, strlen(mystr) returns 11.
