If this is for a homework assignment, shouldn't you be figuring out
the solution on your own?  I will give you a pointer: What you wish
to do is called "string concatenation", and there is a function in
the standard library that handles it. (Actually, there are two
functions in the standard library that would work here. I leave
finding them to you.)
