C++ Comparison

[Lord]

Hey;

Say my variable string 'a' contained
"A b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z"

thats the string; spaces included.

I wonna see how many times a certain letter shows up; say 'j'

how would i compare the two strings(pretend they were both strings instead of letters) how would i compare the two strings and seperate each letter in string a into different "words" / figure out how to do this?

There's a function strtok which can parse a string into tokens separated by spaces ot whatever you want. Or if you just waht to count/compare distinct letters, use char *ptr=your_string, and then ptr[0] is the first character in the string, ptr[1] the second and so on. Character '\0' marks the end of the string.
