		while (str1[i] != ' '&&str1[i] != '\0')	//copying the word from the text to a new string
			str3[j++] = str1[i++];

		str3[j] = '\0';	//assigning null character at the end of string
		j = 0;

		if ((_strcmpi(str2, str3)) == 0)	//comparing the given word with the copied word

like in file it store

50 the
20 so
10 on

it will print

50 the
20 so
10 on

and so on

code is working fine! I compile it and it run

1 solution

It is not difficult: in a loop read from the file a word at time (you may use fscanf[^] for the purpose ) and check if it matches the user input.

Do you want to count the occurrences of every word of the file?
