In this exercise you will create a program that determines the length of a first name and last name individually and then the length of the entire name through the use of the C-style string functions strlen, strcpy, and strcat.

Begin by declaring and initializing the C-style string variable first_name to contain "Bjarne".
Now, declare and initialize a second C-style string variable last_name to contain "Stroustrup".
You must also declare a third C-style string variable whole_name but do not initialize it yet. Remember that the variable whole_name must be large enough to contain the first and last name with no whitespaces.

Now, by using the C-style string function strlen, declare and initialize the variable first_name_length to contain the length of the first_name string and the variable last_name_length to contain the length of the last_name string.

Using the C-style string function strcpy, copy the first_name string into the whole_name string variable.
Now, by using the C-style string function strcat, concatenate the last_name string at the end of the whole_name string.
Finally, by using the C-style string function strlen, declare and initialize the variable whole_name_length to contain the length of the whole_name string.
