C program to print last word in a sentence

Question

How can I print last word in a sentence?

Answer 1

Try to use array, then find the last element and print it.

Answer 2

Personally, I'd iterate over the sentence until I find the terminating null character and reset a last_word variable every time I find a space.

Something like this (pseudo code):

while char != '\0'
char = sentence[i]
last_word += char
if char == ' '
last_word = ''

Answer 3

this way is much simpler without loops.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

int main() {
char str[] = "this is a sentence.";
char *word = strrchr(str, ' ') + 1;
printf("%s\n", word);
return 0;
}

Answer 4

I think you should show your try, on this, and if it's the logic behind it you need someone to explain to you, just ask

Answer 5

I don't know why you guys keep on giving the solution out instead of a hint for him to think like a programmer and get problems solved, am sure nobody will have a food on the table and say that he want to re-cook another because they do not make that themselves

Answer 6

Reverse loop from end of string to previous word 😎

Answer 7

Pointers aren't used yet so I cannot use them.

Answer 8
