comparing characters of a string in c++
To compare characters of a string in C++, you can use the ==
operator to check if two characters are equal. Here are the steps to compare characters in a string:
- Declare two strings to be compared, let's call them
str1
andstr2
. - Use the
==
operator to compare the characters at the same position in both strings. For example,str1[i] == str2[i]
will compare the characters at indexi
in both strings. - If the characters are equal, the comparison will result in
true
. If they are not equal, the comparison will result infalse
. - Repeat steps 2 and 3 for each character in the string until you have compared all the characters.
Here is an example that demonstrates the comparison of characters in two strings:
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
int main() {
std::string str1 = "Hello";
std::string str2 = "World";
for (int i = 0; i < str1.length(); i++) {
if (str1[i] == str2[i]) {
std::cout << "Characters at index " << i << " are equal." << std::endl;
} else {
std::cout << "Characters at index " << i << " are not equal." << std::endl;
}
}
return 0;
}
In this example, the characters at each index of str1
and str2
are compared using the ==
operator. The program then prints whether the characters are equal or not.
