Answer 8

What about something simple like just iterating over each character? Assuming inputString and outputString are NSStrings something like this should work:

  NSUInteger length = [inputString length];
  for (NSUInteger i = 0; i < length; i++)
  {
    char c = [inputString characterAtIndex:i];
    if (i > 0 && c >= 65 && c <=90)
    {
      [outputString appendFormat:@"\n%c", c];
    }
    else
    {
      [outputString appendFormat:@"%c", c];
    }
  }

Thanx Carson for you reply.But the line

[outputString appendFormat:@"\n%c", c];

througing some exception.I have modify your code to the following one and it seems to be working for me.

---

NSString *inputString=@"IAmABoy"; NSString *outputString; NSString *string=@""; NSUInteger length = [inputString length]; for (NSUInteger i = 0; i < length; i++) { char c = [inputString characterAtIndex:i]; if (i > 0 && c >= 65 && c <=90) { //[outputString appandFormate:@"\n%c", c]; outputString=[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%c", c]; string = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@%@%@",string,@" ",outputString]; NSLog(@"%@", string); } else { //[outputString appendFormat:@"%c", c]; outputString=[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%c", c]; //NSLog(@"%@",outputString); string = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@%@",string,outputString]; NSLog(@"%@", string); } }
