Break the string into different parts

[yezi]

Hi:

I want to break a string like "30 23 date" into 3 parts in C:

int 30;
int 23;
char string date;

Do not know how to get it.

Thanks in advance .

Use one of strtok() or strchr() to break the string apart into
substrings, then use strtol() to convert the strings "30" and "23" into
the integral values 30 and 23.

This smells like a homework question, so I'm not going to post a
complete solution (yet). Read up on strtok(), strchr(), and strtol(),
give it a shot, and if you run into problems feel free to ask more
questions.

strtol() alone can handle this task (hint: 2nd argument

That would be evil.

I think you've just given me an idea for the IOCCC...
