Your question and your sample do not seem to match. You also need to be more explicit about what help you need. How much of this code have you already written and where are you stuck?

This is not a good question - we cannot work out from that little what you are trying to do.

For searching/comparing you can make a copy of your five Inputs and convert the copies to upercase. Then you do your search and replace the postions in original Input strings.

Solution 1

a string is also an array of chars. So you can iterate through all indexes and get a char. This char can you compare and do your thing.

const char *text = "Hello";
int l = strln(text);

for( int i=0;i<l;i++)>
{
  char c = text[i];

  if( (c >='A') && (c<='Z') )
  {
    //do you stuff
    text[i] = '$';
  } 
}

This is for pure C. There are also string classes as std::string which have some helpful functions.

Won't work for 'HARDware' as in OP's question.

then he needs to start with 1 as start for i:

for( int i=1;i

I think it still will not work for HARDware. But the real point is that the original question makes no sense.
