Hi,
>I think tackling the problem will be easier if u create an array of structure, like:
>struct word{
>char str[20]; // this will exceed normal size of words
>int count;
>int index;
>};
>struct word w[70]; // say max number of words
Do you need to store the words seperately in char arrays as well.
coz it doesnt say so in your original problem defn.
It says you just want the length of each word stored in an array.
In that case,the struct thing would waste memory.

Well, I agree. But certainly it is a good approach to make the problem more general and flexible. The structure says everything. It keeps track of the words, their lengths and also their indexes. The problem I have tackled would lead to only a single scan of the string storing all necessary information about the string in the proper fields of the structure.
It's all in a nutshell :)
