    The document discusses methods of the C++ string class including length, operator+, at, find, and substr. It provides examples of using these methods to find characters in a string, break a string into smaller strings, and concatenate strings. The length and size methods return the number of characters in a string. The at method extracts a single character from a specified position. The find method locates a substring within a string. The substr method returns a new string containing part of the original string.

    4002-208 Prog.

    with Classes [in C++] Week 10 Day 1 C++ string class

    Objectives
    Student should be able to use methods in the string class to: Find characters in a string. Break apart a string into smaller strings. Create large strings from smaller strings.

    4002-208

    Background
    The pre-defined class string has attributes and methods. Main attribute is the characters of the string which are numbered starting with 0. Programs must include header file <string> Can be treated as almost a primitive type such as int, double, etc.
    4002-208 3

    length Method
    Purpose: method length gives the number of characters. Method size does the same. Parameters: none Returns: length as integer Notes
    An empty string has length of 0. A string with length n has characters in positions 0..n-1.
    4002-208 4

    Operator+
    Adding together or concatenating strings Form: lhs + rhs Returns a string object whose contents are the combination of the content of lhs followed by those of rhs. Program: concat.cpp

    4002-208

    at Method
    Purpose: method at extracts one character from a string at the specified position between 0 and length( )1 Parameter:
    Position in string to be extracted.

    Returns: one character at specified position. Program: print_at.cpp


    4002-208 6

    find Method
    Purpose: method find finds first occurrence of a single character in a string Parameter: 1 parameter of type char
    Character to be found in string

    Returns: position of character in the string or -1 if not found Note: search begins at start of string Program: find.cpp
    4002-208 7

    find Method
    Purpose: method find finds first occurrence of a string in another string Two formats based on parameter type Parameters: 1 parameter of type string
    String to be found in string

    Returns: position of first character in the string or -1 if not found Note: search begins at start of string
    4002-208 8

    substr Method
    Purpose: method substr returns a new string object created by copying parts of an existing string object. Two formats 1 or 2 parameters Parameters: (2 parameter format)
    Starting position Number of characters

    Returns: new string with specified sub-string


    4002-208 9

    substr Method (cont.)


    Second format: Parameters: (1 parameter format)
    Starting position

    Returns: a new string with specified sub-string from starting position to the end of the string.
