Can anyone please elaborate this loop??
while(str<end)
{
temp=*str;
*str++=*end;
*end--=temp;
}
and especially 2nd and 3rd clause of loop either increment or assignment will be done first...

str and end are pointers.
while (str is pointing at memory somewhere before what end is pointing at)
{
make a temporary copy of whatever str is pointing at
copy whatever end is pointing at into what str is pointing at
move the pointer str along one
copy that temporary value into wehre end is pointing
move end back one
}
This looks like a simple string (char array) reversal algorithm. Here is the same thing, done with your fingers and a line of text.
Write out a long string
Point one finger at the first letter and one finger at the last letter
Swap the letters over.
Move your fingers in one letter.
Repeat until your fingers meet.
