Program Plan Intro

Word Counter

Program Plan:

  • Include the required header files to the program.
  • Define function prototype which is used in the program.
  • Define the “main()” function.
    • Declare the required variables.
    • Get the input c-string from the user and call the function “word_count”.
    • Print the c-string words count.
    • Get the input string object from the user and call the function “word_count”.
    • Print the string object words count.
  • Define the “word_count” function.
    • Declare the variable.
    • The “while” loop is used to count the number of words in that string.
      • The “while” loop is used to ignore the whitespaces.
      • The “if” condition is used to count the words.
      • The “while” loop is used to move to next word.
    • Finally return the words count to the main function.
  • Define the “word_count” function.
    • Declare the variable.
    • Get the length of the string.
    • The “for” loop is used to count the number of words in that string object.
      • The “if” condition is used to ignore the whitespaces. Otherwise it is used count the words.
      • The “if” condition is used to determine the words.
    • Finally return the words count to the main function.

Q: People often forget closing parentheses when entering formulas. Write a program that asks the user to enter a formula and prints out whether the formula has the same number of opening and closing parentheses. Q: Write a program that asks the user to enter a word and prints out whether that word contains any vowels. Q: Write a program that asks the user to enter a string. The program should create a new string called new_string from the user’s string such that the second character is changed to an asterisk and three exclamation points are attached to the end of the string. Finally, print new_string. Typical output is shown below: Enter your string: Qbert Q*ert!!! Q: Write a program that asks the user to enter a string s and then converts s to lowercase, removes all the periods and commas from s, and prints the resulting string. Q: Write a program that asks the user to enter a word and determines whether the word is a palindrome or not. A palindrome is a word that reads the same…
3. Word Counter Write a function that accepts a pointer to a C-string as an argument and returns the number of words contained in the string. For instance, if the string argument is "Four score and seven years ago" the function should return the number 6. Demonstrate the function in a program that asks the user to input a string then passes it to the func- tion. The number of words in the string should be displayed on the screen. Optional Exercise: Write an overloaded version of this function that accepts a string class object as its argument.
