How to split a string into an tokens and then save them in an array?

Specifically, I have a string "abc/qwe/jkh". I want to separate "/", and then save the tokens into an array.

#include <stdio.h> #include <string.h>  int main () {     char buf[] ="abc/qwe/ccd";     int i = 0;     char *p = strtok (buf, "/");     char *array[3];      while (p != NULL)     {         array[i++] = p;         p = strtok (NULL, "/");     }      for (i = 0; i < 3; ++i)          printf("%s\n", array[i]);      return 0; }

You can use strtok()

char string[] = "abc/qwe/jkh"; char *array[10]; int i = 0;  array[i] = strtok(string, "/");  while(array[i] != NULL)    array[++i] = strtok(NULL, "/");
