std::strchr(3)		       C++ Standard Libary		  std::strchr(3)

NAME
     std::strchr - std::strchr

Synopsis
	Defined in header <cstring>
	const char* strchr( const char* str, int ch );
	    char* strchr(	char* str, int ch );

	Finds the first occurrence of the character static_cast<char>(ch) in the
     byte string
	pointed to by str.

	The  terminating null character is considered to be a part of the string
     and can be
	found if searching for '\0'.

Parameters
	str - pointer to the null-terminated byte string to be analyzed
	ch  - character to search for

Return value
	Pointer to the found character in str, or a  null  pointer  if	no  such
     character is
	found.

Example
     // Run this code

      #include <cstring>
      #include <iostream>

      int main()
      {
	  const char* str = "Try not. Do, or do not. There is no try.";
	  char target = 'T';
	  const char* result = str;

	  while ((result = std::strchr(result, target)) != nullptr)
	  {
	      std::cout << "Found '" << target
			<< "' starting at '" << result << "'\n";

	      // Increment result, otherwise we'll find target at the same loca-
     tion
	      ++result;
	  }
      }

Output:
      Found 'T' starting at 'Try not. Do, or do not. There is no try.'
      Found 'T' starting at 'There is no try.'
