Question

I want some ideas on parsing a string into character so that I can do manipulation as needed on the characters of the string.I want ideas,pseudocodes are appreciated.Please dont post any code here.

Answer 1

You could loop over all chars in your string, and check for some characters you need to manipulate. A simple draft could look like:

char *str = "some-text";
char *p = str;

while ( *p ) {
 char ch = *p++;
 switch( ch ) {
   case '-': manip1(ch);
   ...
  }
}
