I need to create a string on the heap, I was wondering if there is something similar already included in the standard libraries, or do I have to implement it myself (using malloc())?

You could use
malloc(),calloc()orstrdup()(the latter is POSIX, not standard C).It is not totally clear what you mean by “implement it myself (using
malloc())” — what exactly is there to implement?
