Function to validate a string with space

[jayasekar.k]

Hi friends,
Is there any inbuilt function other than strncmp which can evaluate a string as given below,
array[10]={""}; --> has no values
array[10]={" "}; --> contains 12 spaces
array[10]={"1234567890"}; --> contains 12 char values
array[10]={"a3cvvae3"}; --> contains alp-num values

my requirement is " if all 10 values are spaces print 1 else if it contains some values print 2 else print 3.

if i use strlen, even space is counted !

I know that i can evaluate using for loop by checking 1 by 1 char, and using strcmp function, is there any other way ??


Thanks
Jayasekar

i = memcmp(array,"          ",10)==0 ? 2 : array[0]=='\0' ? 3 : 1 ;

Please don't post class problems here! Your initializers are really bogus and you need to learn why...
