I'm Back! - Need Help w/ String Comparison

[boscord]

Hey Everybody!

Its been a long time since ive been at these forums, but the time of return has finally arrived. I just started doing C++ very recently (in fact, about 4.5 days ago) and I was looking to do string comparison as part of a little beginner project.

My question is, how can I declare two string and determine if they are equal?

Also, how can I copy a segment of a string, anywhere in the string?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

To compare two strings, you use "strcmp" providing it two strings to compare. I'll return 0 if both are same, <0 if first string is less than the second string, >0 if first string is greater than the second string.

#include <iostream.h>
#include <string>
void main()
{
char string1[20] = "Hello";
char string2[20] = "Boy";
if (strcmp(string1,string2) == 0)
{
cout<<"Both strings are same";
} 

To get some specific characters from a string, check out this thread:
