Question

In C language, Write a function that gets a string containing a positive integer. The function subtracts 1 from
that integer and puts the obtained value in the string.

void str_subtract_one(char* num);

For example:
- if before we call str_subtract_one(str) we have str==“1997”, then after return str will be “1996”.
- if before we call str_subtract_one(str) we have str==“12345678987650”, then after return str will be “12345678987649”.
- if before we call str_subtract_one(str) we have str==“100”, then after return str will be “99”.

1. You may assume that the input is always legal, i.e., the string is a positive integer correctly formatted.
2. Note that the numbers may be larger than the maximum of int or long. That is, you should not try to convert string to int
