public:
    int lengthOfLastWord(string s) {
        string::size_type pos = s.find_last_not_of(' ');
        if (pos != s.npos)
        {
            string sTemp = s.substr(0, pos+1);
            pos = sTemp.rfind(' ');
            if (pos != sTemp.npos)
            {
                return sTemp.length() - pos - 1;
            }
            else
