4. Programs on String Instructions.

a) W. A. L. P. to find the length of a given string.

b) W. A. L. P. to move a string from one memory location to another memory location.
c) W. A. L. P. to perform string comparison.
d) W. A. L. P. to find the whether the given string is palindrome or not.
e) W. A. L. P. to find the alphabetical order of a given string.
