  2. For each word, compare its length with the length of the current longest word.
  3. If the current word is longer than the longest one, update the longest word and its index.
  4. Finally, output the result in the format: "Longest word: [word] at index [index]", where [word] is the longest word and [index] is the index of its first occurrence in the string.
