Instead of doing this if(ch == ' '
|| ch == '\n') you could make it a
little more flexible with a function
found in <cctype> (<ctype.h> if you use
C or an older C++ compiler). The
function I am referring to is
isspace(int ch) which returns true if
it is a space character.
http://www.cppreference.com/stdstring_de
tails.html#isspace Another tip for
searching... have you looked into the
Boyer-Moore-Horspool algorithm?
http://www.glenmccl.com/bmh.htm has
it written in older C++

Hi seth, i havn't been programming for
that long and that ctype header looks
like it will come in handy for what i'm
working on at the moment.
