     Modifications:   none*/
  char *text,*forename,*surname;
/* We must allocate space for the strings say 80 chars  so we use 81 because the terminator takes 1
space*/
  text = (char *)malloc(81);
  forename = (char *)malloc(81);
  surname = (char *)malloc(81);
  if ((text == NULL)|| (forename == NULL) || (surname== NULL))
  {
  printf("Memory full Error type -1 \n\r");
  exit(1);
  }
  printf("Please enter in your fore and surname name\n\r");
  /* Note no address operator required because text is an address 
   Scanf will read up to a white space and assign that to forename 
   the rest will be assigned to surname*/
  scanf("%s%s",forename,surname);
  /* We can extract the initial of the forename and store in in temp*/
  *text = toupper(*forename);
  *(text+1) = ' ';
  *(text+2) = '\0';
  /*We can now add together the two strings */
  strcat(text,surname);
  printf("Hello %s\n\r",text); 
  printf("Press and key to exit \n\r");
  scanf("\n%c",&prompt);
  }
