Breaking a single string into multiple strings C++?

Question

I need to input 3 full names separated by commas

Full Name 1: John, Smith, Flynn
Full Name 2: Walter, Kennedy, Roberts
Full Name 3: Sam, Bass, Clinton

Answer 1

I think here what you want to is a split method for string class, the method should like this:

void SplitName(const string& fullName, const string& delims, vector& names)
{
    size_t i = 0;
    size_t j = 0;
    while (i < fullName.size())
    {
        i = fullName.find_first_not_of(delims, i);
        j = fullName.find_first_of(delims, i);
        if (i < fullName.size())
        {
            names.push_back(fullName.substr(i, j - i));
        }
        i = j;
    }
}

you can define the ":," as delims, then names[1] is First Name, names[2] is Middle Name, names[3] is Last Name.
