Write a function that counts and returns the number of vowels in a word.

The function's one parameter is a constant string reference

The function returns the number of vowels in the string parameter as an int

A word is a collection of letters of the alphabet.

The normal vowels are the letters, ignoring case, A, E, I, O, U

If a word does not contain any normal vowels, then, ignoring case, Y is a vowel.

for example

"yellow" contains two normal vowels, "o" and "w"

"pygmy" contains no normal vowels but contain two vowels, two occurrences of "y"

"psst" contains neither normal vowels nor "y"s

"y" is not a vowel in "yellow" but "y" is a vowel in "pygmy"

Create a text file of words, one word per line

Apply the function to each word in the file

The program displays each word and its vowel count on its own line

For example,

john 1

threw    1

the 1

orange 3

into 2

the 1

sky 1

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Criteria

1) program compiles
2) program solves problem according to specification
3) program declares, creates, or initializes static or dynamic array correctly
4) if required program defines function or functions with array parameters or array returns
5) program uses arrays to solve problem
6) program destroys any dynamic arrays
