Need help in creating a C(NOT C+ OR C#) function that will help split a string present in a Text file. Conditions are that the length of the characters of the words can vary from 7 to 10 maximum and it would be done to random words. For example if the string is "Pedestal -the base or support on which a statue" I want the function to return "Pedestal" and " -the base or support on which a statue" separately. Again the words can vary from 7 to 10 characters but after the word, there is a gap and then there is the definition, which I need to separate. In the function I cant use break, continue exit etc.
