java - Word count in a string -


ok,now know question has been asked many times , answered too, came across question , wrote this(poor piece of) code without taking clue previous answeres,and although giving me correct output,i can't decide if correct.

public class wordcount  { public static void main(string[] args) throws ioexception {     system.out.println("enter string");     bufferedreader br = new bufferedreader(new inputstreamreader(system.in));     string s1= br.readline();     s1 = s1+" ";     string ns = "";     int count = 0;     for(int = 0; < s1.length(); i++)     {         char ch = s1.charat(i);         if(ch == ' ')         {             //ns = ns+ch;             count++;         }         /*else         {             ns = ns+ch;         }*/     }     system.out.println("there "+count+" words in string");       }  } 

int linecount = yourstring.trim().split("\\s+").length; 

the split() function returns array containing tokens made splitting string in specified way. take string, split spaces , since it's array - take length of it. that's need count words. (the regex \\s+ makes function split string @ every blank space, i.e., return array containing words.)
