Problem Solution:
In this program, we will use the strtok() function. This function is used to split the string and get words from a specified string based on a specified delimiter.
Program:
The source code to split the string using the strtok() function is given below. The given program is compiled and executed using GCC compile on UBUNTU 18.04 OS successfully.
// C program to split string
// using strtok() function
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
int main()
{
char str[32] = "www.includehelp.com";
char* word;
char delim[2] = ".";
//Get first word from string.
word = strtok(str, delim);
while (word != NULL) {
printf("%s\n", word);
word = strtok(NULL, delim);
}
return 0;
}
Output:
www
includehelp
com
Explanation:
In the main() function, we created a string str initialized with "www.includehelp.com". Then we split the string based on dot (.) delimiter using the strtok() function and printed the words on the console screen.
