Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Its hard to say without knowing what you want to achieve with you bot but I can say a few things. No there is no fancy switch statement. C only supports switch on integral values. Take a look at the function strstr() which searches one string for another one so you might have char message[256]; char *where_is; strcpy(message, "Hello this is a message"); where_is = strstr("is", message); if (where_is) { printf("Found string '%s'.\n", where_is); } What do you want to do with you chat analyser?
