6.24.1: LAB: Acronyms

An acronym is a word formed from the initial letters of words in a set phrase. Define a function named CreateAcronym that takes two string parameters: userPhrase and userAcronym. Function CreateAcronym() then assigns userAcronym with the acronym of userPhrase. Append a period (.) after each letter in the acronym. If a word begins with a lower case letter, don't include that letter in the acronym. Then write a main program that reads a phrase from input, calls CreateAcronym() with the input phrase as one of the arguments, and outputs the resulting acronym. Assume the input has at most 50 characters and contains at least one upper case letter.

Ex: If the input is:

Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers

the output should be:

I.E.E.E.

Ex: If the input is:

Association for computing MACHINERY

the output should be:

A.M.

Although the letters ACHINERY in MACHINERY are upper case, those letters are omitted for being a part of the word MACHINERY.

The program must define and call a function:
void CreateAcronym(char userPhrase[], char userAcronym[])

Hint: Use isupper() to check if a letter is upper case.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <ctype.h>

/* Define your function here. */


int main() {

   /* Type your code here. */

   return 0;
}
