[Solved] find a single char in a string [closed]

what about this?

stringtest(string &s)
{
    if(string.length()<1)
    return -2
    std::string begin(' ?');
    if(begin.find(s.front())>1)
    //test if first character of s is in begin
    {
        unsigned found = s.find_first_not_of(' ',1)
        //checks if there are any other char then ' ' after the first char
        if(found >s.length())
        return s.at(0);
    }
    else if(begin.find(s.back())>1)
    //test if last character of s is in begin
    {
        unsigned found = s.find_last_not_of(' ',s.length()-1);
        //checks if there are any other char then ' ' before the last char
        if(found !=std::string::npos)
        return s.at(s.length()-1);
    }
    if(s.length()==1 && s.front()== ' ')
    return -1
    else return -2
}
