You can use a regular expression for this.
See C++ Regular Expressions with std::regex[^]

Example of regular expression that will pick out the number strings from the input data.

/OFCI(?<group1>\d+(\.\d+)?)/OFGI(?<group2>\d+(\.\d+)?)

The expression \d+(\.\d+)? will put a number of the format 1111.222 or 111 into a group.
This part (\.\d+)? means it is optional.
