I absolutely agree. I've been bashing my head against this for over an hour and I can finally get back to coding!

Sorry to be off topic but does anybody know of a trick to get back into an instagram account? I somehow lost the account password. I would love any assistance you can offer me.

Thanks a lot !!

@@saravananjagadeeesan593 you're the admin of this channel?

Thanks! I will look into it.

I have this video for VSCode: code-vault.net/lesson/ublnbln8uf:1603733528013 I no longer use DevC++, but that should work out of the box without any configurations needed.

Just use the "[]" string as delimiters for strtok. strtok will split at any of the characters found in that string: strtok(exampleString, "[]");

@@CodeVault Ooh i see. Thank you so much :D

You could probably just use: strtok(str, "\",\""); And ignore the first and the last piece you get (since those are just gonna have the { and } characters)

Of course. Usually I suggest you simply make a statically allocated array of char pointers so you don't have to deal with allocating and deallocating elements of that array

Definitely. If you already know the exact number of words the sentence it's going to have *sscanf* is a much better option. Although *strtok* is mostly for parsing an array of any number of elements, that's where using *sscanf* gets a bit tricky. The example was supposed to show when you have to parse a string in which is encoded an *unknown* number of elements (in this case, words). In that case, one call to *sscanf* won't be enough. You could use *sscanf* in a while loop (with the format string *%[A-Za-z] %s*) and just keep getting the first word every iteration, which is fancier but requires more work than just using *strtok*. Thanks for the feedback!

Yes, every time you call strtok, it will change piece.

Thank you for these amazing videos and for your fast response

What's the problem?

I'm not sure which function you're talking about... You mean the debugger?

You could simply define 2D array of characters: char pieces[100][100]; int count = 0; And just copy each piece using strcpy, like so: strncpy(pieces[count++], piece, 99);

@@CodeVault Wow, superb. Finally it works. Thank you so much for your help. You've got a new subscriber 😁

I think iterating over the string and manually checking each character (without using strtok) is the best option in this case

@@CodeVault ok let me see I can do something to add 0 in between ,,

No, it won't work. I suggest using strcpy(str + wordIndex, str + wordIndex + wordSize); That will basically copy over the last part of your string (after the word you found) over that word, essentially deleting it.

@@CodeVault i used Strtok() to separate each word, then i iterated through them with a loop and copied the words onto a text file, and when i reached the index that was given, i just skipped copying that word

@@ronjeremy1232 Be careful with that. strtok takes a list of characters to split at, not a full string. So if you give it, let's say, "apple", it will split at the characters 'a', 'p', 'l' and 'e'. Not at the string "apple". That's why I think you cannot really use it for removing other words.

@@CodeVault but i was forced to use strtok and strcat specifically

And i separated them with strtok(str, " ")

We're not dynamically allocating anything in the video

I'm using Dev C++ since it's lightweight and works out of the box. Here's the download link to it: sourceforge.net/projects/orwelldevcpp/

Just use strtok() as shown in the video with the space character as delimiter

You will have to use strcpy to copy each piece to the array: strcpy(exampleArray[i], piece); I made a video regarding the difference between assigning and strcpy for strings. Maybe it helps: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jLd4fpV2v8Cskmw.html

That is tricky to do with strtok. I suggest you iterate over your string and break it up that way if you need this custom grouping.

Good question! I could've used a for loop instead, and it would look something like this: for (char* piece = strtok(str, " "); piece != NULL; piece = strtok(NULL, " ")) { ... } It basically combined 3 lines of code into a really long single line. I just preferred the while loop since it is much easier to understand and explain. Feel free to use either one of them as long as it's easy to understand for you and for your team!

There's a course on base convertions for number on Skillshare which you can check out here: www.skillshare.com/r/profile/Sergiu-Muresan/798146080 Otherwise, most content on Udemy is free and also on KZfaq

You simply pass it as a char* int fn(char* in) { ... } // then, after strtok fn(piece);

@@CodeVault Hello Sir, very thanks for the response. When I tried to copy your code, it prints the individual values right. However, printing the value is not what I am required to do. What I am required to do Sir is that I need to be able to build a linked list out of the individual pieces that I was able to extract using the strtok() method. So I made a push function that would append each "piece" from the given input string. When I tried to pass the piece and run the code, the output is not the same as the user's. :( I'm afraid the "piece" that was extracted is not of an integer/char type. Please help me sir. Also, may I email you the code for you to be able to fully grasp what I'm saying?

Yeah, then you might have to allocate space for it in the linked list's node and then call strcpy

Just iterate over the string's characters and compare each one with a space. There's no function that does this for you afaik.
