Means un limited special charecter between and sides of the
string data..output should be(GANESH)
HOW YOU HANDEL THIS TYPE OF RECORDS,,COZ U DON"T KNOW WHERE
AND WHAT ARE THE SPECIAL CHARACTERS IN BETWWEN THE NAME...

Answer Posted / anirban_ghosh

Since it's been said...we know nothing of the special characters present in between...therefore..the wise thing would be tp extract each character and compare it with the (int value) of the alphabets......if the (int) value of the extracted character is between....65-90 or 97-122......store it in a queue......at the end....flush out the queue....that's it!!!
