string comparing

hi long time no c(++)


i'm making a hangman in console
my problem is the following:


the user will have a word of lets say 10 letters

char word[10]={something};// should i use " " or ' ', ' ', ?


to think of then input a letter letter by letter
like
char input[0];

how can i check if this letter he has given exists

in the string word[10]

thanks in advance

Use the find method of the string class. I.e.

find (charT c, size_type pos = 0) const;

i tried all methods i could thiks of using the find function
but i dont get use of it

could u explain further

how do i find a character

in a string

i.e

char string1[6]="blabla";
char string2;

???

Sorry, your comment

>in the string word[10]

led me to think you were using the string class. Forget this because I see you are using char array strings.

Try 'strchr' instead, i.e.

char *strchr( const char *string, int c );

This will return NULL if the value of c is not found in string.

thanx man you've been very helpfull

pode,

Consider Davros' original thought of using a 'string'. You can still access specific char's using [], if you like, since a string is nothing but a char array with more functionality.

Might make life easier!
