Program Plan Intro

Average Number of Letters

Program plan:

Design the form:

  • Place a two label box controls on the form, and change its name and properties.
  • Place a one text box control on the form, and change its name and properties to get the string from user.
  • Place a one command button control on the form, and change its name and properties to count the word in a string and determine the average of number of letters and then display it.

In code window, write the code:

Program.cs:

  • Include the required libraries.
  • Define the namespace “Average”.
    • Define a class “Program”.
      • Define a constructor for the class.
      • Define required functions to run “Form1”.

Form1.cs:

  • Include the required libraries.
  • Define namespace “Average”.
    • Define a class “Form1”.
    • In btnCount() method,
      • Call countWords() method to count the number of words in a sentence.
      • Call countCharacters() method to find the average number of words in a sentence.
      • Display the count and average number of words into label box.
    • In countWords() method,
      • Declare the required variables.
      • Check whether “i” is equal to “0” and any white space in a sentence. If yes, set the word beign.
      • Otherwise, check whether “i” is greater than “0” and any white space in a sentence. If yes, set the word beign.
      • Check whether the word begin is set and check the word is digit or letter with correct punctuation. If yes, increment the counter value by “1”.
      • Return the number of words.
    • In countCharacters() method,
      • Declare the required variables.
      • Check whether string length is equal to “0. If yes, continue the execution.
      • Otherwise, calculate the word length.
      • Check whether the character is punctuation. If yes, decrement the word length.
      • Return the count of word length.
    • Close the application.

Suppose your computer is responding very slowly to information requests from the Internet. You observe that your network gateway shows high levels of network activity even though you have closed your e-mail client, Web browser, and all other programs that access the Internet. What types of malwares could cause such symptoms? What steps can you take to check whether malware has gained access to your system? What tools can you use at each step? If you identify malware, what ways might it have entered your system? How can you restore your PC to safe operation, including the special software tools you may use?
