Hi all,

I am writing a search function to find substrings in sentences using
AND and OR logic and I would like to know if there is any way to do
something like:

int result = search("This is a test sentence" for "test" AND ("this"
OR "This"));

Any ideas?

What I am tending towards now is something like

int result = search(char *sentence, char *search_string_and_rules);

This would equate to something like:
int result = search("This is a test sentence", "test AND (this OR
This)")

But the problem with that is parsing out all of the extraneous data...

Thanks for the help
