    The question was to “help create”, not “create”, so here’s some pseudocode for you 🙂

    let numberOfDashes = TARGET_LENGTH - labelLength
let numberOfLeftDashes = numberOfDashes/2
let numberOfRightDashes = numberOfDashes - numberOfLeftDashes

let paddedString =
    repeat('-',numberOfLeftDashes)
  + labelString
  + repeat('-',numberOfRightDashes)

    I’ll leave it to you to rewrite that in C, shouldn’t be hard – drop a comment if there are any problems.
