import java.util.Scanner;

public class TarStrinSrcStr {

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		String src, trg;
		int srcLen, trgLen;
		boolean found = false;
		int i;
		Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in);
		System.out.println("Please Enter the Source String and target string:");

		src = scanner.next();
		srcLen = src.length();
		trg = scanner.next();
		trgLen = trg.length();
		scanner.close();

		for (i = 0; i < srcLen; i++) 
		{   if (trg.charAt(0) == src.charAt(i)) 
			{	found = true;
				for (int j = 1; j < trgLen; j++) 
				{  if (src.charAt(i + j) != trg.charAt(j)) 
				   { found = false;
					 break;
				   }
				}
			}
			if (found) 
			{ System.out.println("The target string " + trg + "found at :"+ i);
			  i = i + trgLen;
			}
		}
	}
}
