This program should input 3 c-strings into an array of c-strings. Print only tho

Question

This program should input 3 c-strings into an array of c-strings.

Print only those that end is "es" or begin in "yan".

1st. Use c-string function to find the length so you know where the last two characters are, then compare the last two characters separately.  

2nd.  Use a c-string function to compare, all at once, just the first three characters in the c-string (a function similar to strcmp, but that will only compare a certain number of characters).  Use loops.

I should not use string objects.

This one I was just trying it around. So if it is confusing just ignore it

#include <iostream>

#include <cstring>

#include <string>

using namespace std;

void main()

{

int len;

char  words;

string beg = "yan";

string end = "es";

string test;

int i;

size_t j;

// inputing the string

for (i = 0; i < 3 ; i++)

{

    cout << "input string: " << endl;

len = strlen(words);

if (strcmp((words.substr(0, 2), beg ) == 0))

cout << words[i];

else

strstr(words,end);

}

}

Explanation / Answer

#include <iostream>
#include <cstring>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
int len;
char words[45];
char* beg = "yan";
char* end = "es";
int i;
size_t j;
// inputing the string
for (i = 0; i < 3 ; i++)
{
cout << " input string: ";
cin >> words;
cout << endl;
len = strlen(words);
if(words[len-2]=='e' && words[len-1]=='s')
{
cout << words;
}
else if (strncmp(words,beg,3) == 0)
{
cout << words;
}
}
return 0;
}
