Thread: Removing gap in string in C

Hi. I am last year MCA student. I am learning C programming language. I want to write program in C language but there is problem with difficulty of spaces in string. I want to delete spaces from string. If you have any in code please let me know that. Thanks in advanced.

Refer following program for removing space in string in C. Hope this helps you out with your problem:

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <ctype.h>
#include <conio.h>
void main() {
  char ch[80] = "Where there is will, there is a way.";
  char *p1 = ch;
  char *p2 = ch;
  p1 = ch;
   while(*p1 != 0) {
    if(ispunct(*p1) || isspace(*p1)) {
      ++p1;
    }
    else
    *p2++ = *p1++; 
  }
  *p2 = 0; 
  printf("nAfter removing the spaces, string is:%sn", ch);
  getch();
}

The code that I have mentioned below will definitely help you. It is very simple code.

Code:

#include<stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
char p[] = "please remove space from me";
int index = 0;

while(p[index] != '\0')
{
if (p[index] == ' '){
p[index] = p[index+1];
p[index+1] =' ';
}
index++;
}
puts(p);
return 0;
}
