for (j=k+1; isspace(s.at(j))==false; j++){

cout<< s[j];

}

cout<<' ';

for (k=j+1; isspace(s.at(k))==false; k++){

#include<ctype.h>

#include<string.h>

using namespace std;

int main()

{

string s;

cout << "Input a sentence : ";

getline(cin,s);

int len = (int)s.length();

int temp;

for(int i=0;i<len;i++)

{

if(ispunct(s[i]))

break;

else

{

if(i==0 || s[i-1]==' ')

{

temp = s[i];

if(temp>=97 && temp<=122)

temp = temp-32;

s[i] = temp;
