in
=> strtok((char*)str.c_str(), " ");

str is string but to use strtok we have to pass character array as a parameter so we are converting string to character array s=strtok((char*)str.c_str()," "); str.c_str() this coverts string to const char* but we want only char* hence now we typecast it to char* using (char*)str.c_str() now we can pass it to strtok if you want to explore more you can read about them in documentation c_str() strtok() if you have more doubts regarding this feel free to ask i hope this helps if yes hit …
