Question

```please convert this code to make only using for loop not while loop

#include
#include
#define MAX_SIZE 500

int main()
{
char str[MAX_SIZE];
char tosearch[MAX_SIZE];
char part1[100];

int cursor = 0, i, cnt1 = 0, cnt2 = 0, cnt = 0;
int j = 0;
int a = 0;
int b = 0;
int total = 0;
printf("Enter any string: ");
gets(str);
printf("Enter word to search occurrences: ");
gets(tosearch);

for (i = 0; i < strlen(tosearch); i++)
{
if (tosearch[i] == '*')
{
for (j = 0; j < i; j++)
{
part1[j] = tosearch[j];

}

a = j;
}

}

for (j = 0; j < strlen(tosearch) - a; j++)
{
part2[j] = tosearch[a + j + 1];
}

for (j = 0; j < a; j++)
{
printf("%c", part1[j]);

}
printf("\n");

for (j = 0; j < strlen(tosearch) - a - 1; j++)
{
printf("%c", part2[j]);
}

printf("\n");
b = strlen(part2);

while (cursor < strlen(str)) { // while the cursor is smaller than length of main string while loop goes on

while (cnt1 != a) { // if the cnt1 is smaller than the part1 length the while loop goes on
  
if (str[cursor] == part1[0]) { // if the str[cursor] is correspond to the first word of part1 go to for loop

for (i = 0; i < a; i++) {

if (str[cursor + i] == part1[i])
{
cnt1++; // count the number of matching letter of part1 and main string

}
else { // else the cnt1 goes to 0 again and cursor goes forward
cnt1 = 0;
cursor++;
break;
}
}
}
if (cursor > strlen(str) || cnt1 == a)
{
  
break;
}
cursor++; // cursor goes to the next letter
}

cursor += a; printf("the value of cursor %d ", cursor);
  

while (cnt2 != b) { // if cnt2 is less than the length of part2 the while loop goes on

Ans

code:-

#include

#include

#define MAX_SIZE 500

int main()

{

char str[MAX_SIZE];

char tosearch[MAX_SIZE];

char part1[100];

char part2[100];

int cursor = 0, i, cnt1 = 0, cnt2 = 0, cnt = 0;

int j = 0;

int a = 0;

int b = 0;

int total = 0;

printf("Enter any string: ");

gets(str);

printf("Enter word to search occurrences: ");

gets(tosearch);

for (i = 0; i < strlen(tosearch); i++)

{

if (tosearch[i] == '*')

{

for (j = 0; j < i; j++)

{

part1[j] = tosearch[j];

}

a = j;

}

}

for (j = 0; j < strlen(tosearch) - a; j++)

{

part2[j] = tosearch[a + j + 1];

}

for (j = 0; j < a; j++)

{

printf("%c", part1[j]);

}

printf("\n");

for (j = 0; j < strlen(tosearch) - a - 1; j++)

{

printf("%c", part2[j]);

}

printf("\n");

b = strlen(part2);

for (;cursor < strlen(str);cnt++) { // while the cursor is smaller than length of main string while loop goes on

for(;cnt1 != a;cursor++) { // if the cnt1 is smaller than the part1 length the while loop goes on

  

if (str[cursor] == part1[0]) { // if the str[cursor] is correspond to the first word of part1 go to for loop

for (i = 0; i < a; i++) {

if (str[cursor + i] == part1[i])

{

cnt1++; // count the number of matching letter of part1 and main string

}

else { // else the cnt1 goes to 0 again and cursor goes forward

cnt1 = 0;

cursor++;

break;

}

}

}

if (cursor > strlen(str) || cnt1 == a)

{

  

break;

}

// cursor goes to the next letter

}

cursor += a; printf("the value of cursor %d ", cursor);

  

for(;cnt2!=b;cursor++)

{ // if cnt2 is less than the length of part2 the while loop goes on

if (str[cursor] == part2[0]) { // if the str[cursor] correspond with part2[0] for loop goes on

for (i = 0; i < b; i++) {

if (str[cursor + i] == part2[i])

{

cnt2++; // count the matching letter of str and part2

}

else {

cnt2 = 0; // else cnt2 goes to 0 and cursor move on break free from the for loop

cursor++;

break;

}

}

}

if (cursor > strlen(str) || cnt2 == b) // if the cursor is larger than the strlen or cnt2 == (the length of part2) break free

break;

// move on to the next letter of the main string

  

}

if (cursor + b > strlen(str))

break;

cnt1 = 0;

cnt2 = 0;

}

printf("tot %d\n", cnt);

}
