I'm trying to scroll through a list of cstrings and if they end in an 's' I want to replace it with a '\0' the problem is somtimes it catches the word and corrects it for a comparison, but other times it doesn't
while (ptr != NULL)
{
if(ptr[sizeof(ptr)] == 's')
{
ptr[sizeof(ptr)] = '\0';
ptr = ptr;
}
(binarySearch(dictionary, ptr) == false);// ? cout << ptr << " misspelled on line " << line << endl: cout << "" << endl;
ptr = strtok(NULL," ;.");
}
Input file:
Razors pain you;
Rivers are damp;
Acids Stain you;
And drugs cause cramp.
Guns aren't lawful;
Nooses give;
Gas smells awful;
you might as well live.
out put:
word:razors last char r
word:rivers last char r
word:guns last char
word:nooses last char e

I feel like I've asked too many questions today, but this one is killing me, I've hit a point where I'm clueless (more than usual) there's no leading or trailing white spaces, delimeters or any other folderal encumbering these words, but on some words it hiccups, and is you look at 'guns' it doesn't anything. Any explantion for this inconsistancy in lengths?
