How Do I Iterate Over the Words of a String?

Iterate Over Characters of a String in TypeScript

In C++, strings are character sequences stored in a char array. It may contain text in the form of multiple words representing a sentence. In this article, we will learn how we can iterate over the words of a string in C++.

Example:

Input:
myString ="Geek for Beginner"

Output:
Geek
for  
Beginner

Iterate Over the Words of a String in C++

In C++, one of the most simple ways to iterate over the words of a string is using the std::stringstreams. The stringstream creates a stream to the given string. Then we can use cin to iterate word after word as it by default takes the input string till the white space is encountered.

C++ Program to Iterate Over the Words of a String

C++

// C++ program to Iterate Over the Words of a String 
#include <iostream> 
#include <sstream> 
#include <string> 
using namespace std; 
  
int main() 
{ 
    // declare a string of words 
    string S = "Geek for Beginner "; 
    // Initialzie the string stream 
    stringstream ss(S); 
  
    string word; 
  
    // access each word of the string in the form of tokens 
    // and print it 
  
    while (ss >> word) { 
        cout << word << endl; 
    } 
  
    return 0; 
}

Output

Geek
for
Beginner

Time Complexity: O(N) where N is the length of the string.
Space Complexity: O(K) where K is the length of the longest word in the string.

Note: In this program, it is assumed that the words are seperated by a whitespace. If the words are also seperated by a coma or any other character, then we will have to consider it also. Refer to this article for more information.
