unable to use safe string function in C
C11 introduces new function to eradicate buffer overflow while using string in C, --> strnlen_s, strncmpy_s etc where introduced, according to my research I can use this function using #define __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ 1, the problem now is that it's not working https://code.sololearn.com/cvNapT5f0CFV/?ref=app

You can find useful info in this discussion: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15610053/correct-printf-format-specifier-for-size-t-zu-or-iu?lq=1. According to the discussion this prefix "z" is not supported by Microsoft. You can use "I". You can see it in the code.
