Thread: Better Search

Hello, I've been doing a program for my dad, so it could help him work better. I've been trying to make a function that finds a string or words that the user inputs. Here is what I got:

vstore sturcture:

Code:

struct storage
{
	char name[100];
	char id[100];
	char description[100];
}temp;

Code:

void inline Buscar()
{
	
	int counter=0;
	char string[100];

	cout<<"Entre la palabre que desea encontrar: "<<endl;
	cin.getline(string,100,'\n');

	for(int x=0; x<vstore.size(); x++)
	{
		for(int index=0; index<strlen(string); index++)
		{
			if(toupper(vstore[x].name[index]) == toupper(string[index]) )
			{
				counter++;
			}
			if( counter == strlen(string) )
			{
				global = vstore[x];
				cout<<"Name: "<<vstore[x].name;
				cout<<"\nID: "<<vstore[x].id;
				cout<<"\nDesc.:"<<vstore[x].description<<endl;
			}
			else
			{
				cout<<"Didn't Find a MATCH"<<endl;

			}
		}
	}
	system("PAUSE");
	return;
}

How can you make a more efficient code? As so far this one works Please someone help...

Sorry It's in Spanish...

Here it's in english:

Code:

void inline Find()
{
	
	int counter=0;
	char string[100];

	cout<<"Word to find: "<<endl;
	cin.getline(string,100,'\n');

	for(int x=0; x<vstore.size(); x++)
	{
		for(int index=0; index<strlen(string); index++)
		{
			if(toupper(vstore[x].name[index]) == toupper(string[index]) )
			{
				counter++;
			}
			if( counter == strlen(string) )
			{
				global = vstore[x];
				cout<<"Name: "<<vstore[x].name;
				cout<<"\nID: "<<vstore[x].id;
				cout<<"\nDesc.:"<<vstore[x].description<<endl;
			}
			else
			{
				cout<<"Didn't Find a MATCH"<<endl;

			}
		}
	}
	system("PAUSE");
	return;
}

How can I compare the C++ strings?

Thanx SlyMaelstrom, Now I love C++ string!!
