Question checking for nesting of comments

[ritesh2190]

i am writing a program which takes a c program as input and it has to check whether there is a nesting of comments in that c program and gives an output based on that,how do i go about that

By nested comments I assume that you mean something like:

/* blah /* blah */ blah */

In that case you can call String.IndexOf in a loop. If you find the opening tags and closing tags in the wrong order then you have nested comments.
