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

NAME
     std::strpbrk - std::strpbrk

Synopsis
	Defined in header <cstring>
	const char* strpbrk( const char* dest, const char* breakset );
	    char* strpbrk(	 char* dest, const char* breakset );

	Scans the null-terminated byte string pointed to by dest for any charac-
     ter from the
	null-terminated  byte  string  pointed	to  by	breakset,  and returns a
     pointer to that
	character.

Parameters
	dest	 - pointer to the null-terminated byte string to be analyzed
	breakset - pointer to the null-terminated byte string that contains  the
     characters
		   to search for

Return value
	Pointer  to  the  first  character in dest, that is also in breakset, or
     null pointer if
	no such character exists.

Notes
	The name stands for "string pointer break", because it returns a pointer
     to the
	first of the separator ("break") characters.

Example
     // Run this code

      #include <cstring>
      #include <iomanip>
      #include <iostream>

      int main()
      {
	  const char* str = "hello world, friend of mine!";
	  const char* sep = " ,!";

	  unsigned int cnt = 0;
	  do
	  {
	      str = std::strpbrk(str, sep); // find separator
	      std::cout << std::quoted(str) << '\n';
	      if (str)
		  str += std::strspn(str, sep); // skip separator
	      ++cnt; // increment word count
	  } while (str && *str);

	  std::cout << "There are " << cnt << " words\n";
      }

Output:
      " world, friend of mine!"
      ", friend of mine!"
      " of mine!"
      " mine!"
      "!"
      There are 5 words
