BTW in many cases a trim function comes in handy.
For example, the fuzzy strstr() that can match a portion of the string can be replaced with an exact strcmp()
Note that the variable i in the rtrim() is local to the function, does not conflict with the variable i in main()

Hi all,
My simple AWK code does C = A - B
If C can be a negative number, how awk printf formating handles it using string format specifier.

I need to match a float inside a very long string (about 5000 chars) with sscanf. (I trimmed the string in this example.) I can't seem to match all the chars that come before and after the float.

char A = "";
strcat(A, " hello world! WORD' name='5.3498' hello world! ... (1 Reply)
sscanf does not stop at the first "&". How can I extract "doe" ?
char A = "name=john&last=doe&job=vacant&";
char B = "last";
char C = "";
char *POINTER = strstr(A, B);
sscanf(POINTER + strlen(B), "=%s%*", C);
printf("%s\n", C); // doe&job=vacant& (2 Replies)
How can I separetely extract the string and int after "dribble" ? (sscanf must limit TEXT to 9 chars to avoid buffer overflows.)
How come this code does not work with "dribbletext08" but does with "dribbletext05" ?
int main(void)
{
char TEXT = "";
int NUMBER = 0;

strtok_r
STRTOK(3) Linux Programmer's Manual STRTOK(3)NAME
strtok, strtok_r - extract tokens from strings
SYNOPSIS
#include <string.h>
char *strtok(char *str, const char *delim);
char *strtok_r(char *str, const char *delim, char **saveptr);
Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):
strtok_r(): _POSIX_C_SOURCE
|| /* Glibc versions <= 2.19: */ _BSD_SOURCE || _SVID_SOURCE
DESCRIPTION
The strtok() function breaks a string into a sequence of zero or more nonempty tokens. On the first call to strtok(), the string to be
parsed should be specified in str. In each subsequent call that should parse the same string, str must be NULL.
The delim argument specifies a set of bytes that delimit the tokens in the parsed string. The caller may specify different strings in
delim in successive calls that parse the same string.
Each call to strtok() returns a pointer to a null-terminated string containing the next token. This string does not include the delimiting
byte. If no more tokens are found, strtok() returns NULL.
A sequence of calls to strtok() that operate on the same string maintains a pointer that determines the point from which to start searching
for the next token. The first call to strtok() sets this pointer to point to the first byte of the string. The start of the next token is
determined by scanning forward for the next nondelimiter byte in str. If such a byte is found, it is taken as the start of the next token.
If no such byte is found, then there are no more tokens, and strtok() returns NULL. (A string that is empty or that contains only delim-
iters will thus cause strtok() to return NULL on the first call.)
The end of each token is found by scanning forward until either the next delimiter byte is found or until the terminating null byte ('
