Your question is vague.  What does the buffer look like?  Where does "foo"
come from?  Is it derived from the string you're searching for?  Where does
"bar" come from?

It's best to start coding this and come back with specific questions when
you get stuck.  "Do my homework" type of questions aren't likely to get you
a full solution.
