printf("Pass 2");
else
printf("Fail 2");
}
else
{
printf("Fail 1");
if(p[sizeof(p)-2]=='g')
printf("Pass 2");

Fail 1 , Pass 2.
Some explanation,
1. Fail 1
first of all, to compare strings in C, you use this strcmp
function, so this WOULD give PASS 1 :
if(strcmp(p,"String") == 0)
but
if(p=="String")
will fail because this line means :
if address of p is the same as address of some temporary
storage for literals, where literal "String" is stored,
which is very rarely true, because storing literals is
compiler specific and is very hard to estimate at runtime.
2. Pass 2
sizeof(p) gives 7, because sizeof(char) is 1 byte, and we
have 7 chars in array storing "String", which are :
[0]S
[1]t
[2]r
[3]i
[4]n
[5]g
[6]\0 (EOS)
now, clearly sizeof(p) - 2 is [5] which is "g"
thats why
if(p[sizeof(p)-2]=='g')
is true.

Write a function stroverlap that takes (at least) two strings, and concatenates them, but does not duplicate any overlap. You only need to worry about overlaps between the end of the first string and the beginning of the second string. Examples: batman, manonthemoon = batmanonthemoon batmmamaman, mamamanonthemoon = batmmamamanonthemoon bat, man = batman batman, batman = batman batman, menonthemoon = batmanmenonthemoon
