C program to find the longest and smallest word in a string - My CS Tutorial

C program to find the largest and smallest word in a sentence.
In this tutorial we will learn how to write a c program to find or print the largest and smallest word in a sentence.
This is a C program to find largest word in a string.

C program code

#include<stdio.h>

#include<conio.h>

#include<string.h>

void main()

{

    int i=0,j=0,k=0,a,minIndex=0,maxIndex=0,max=0,min=0;

    char str1[100]={0},substr[100][100]={0},c;

    clrscr();

    

    printf("\n ENTER A SENTENCE TO FIND LARGEST AND SMALLEST WORD: \n ");

    gets(str1);

    while(str1[k]!='\0')

    {

        j=0;

        while(str1[k]!=' '&&str1[k]!='\0')

        {

            substr[i][j]=str1[k];

            k++;

            j++;

        }

        substr[i][j]='\0';

        i++;

        if(str1[k]!='\0')

        {

            k++;

        }

    }

    int len=i;

    max=strlen(substr[0]);

    min=strlen(substr[0]);

    

    for(i=0;i<len;i++)

    {

       a=strlen(substr[i]);

       if(a>max)

        {

            max=a;

            maxIndex=i;

        }

        if(a<min)

        {

            min=a;

            minIndex=i;

        }

    }

  printf("\n LARGEST WORD IN THIS SENTENCE IS:\n\n %s \n\n SMALLEST WORD IN THIS SENTENCE IS:\n\n %s\n",substr[maxIndex],substr[minIndex]);

getch();

}

OUTPUT:

In the first we will enter a string or sentence then it will print the longest and smallest word that are available in that string.
