Maximum Occurring Character Given a string, return the character that appears the maximum number of times in the string. The string will contain only ASCII characters, from the ranges ('a'-'z','A'-'Z','0'-'9'), and case matters. If there is a tie in the maximum number of times a character appears in the string, return the character that appears first in the string. Example text = abbbaacc Both 'a' and 'b'occur 3 times in text. Since 'a'occurs earlier, a is the answer.

- Using an instance of a string, you may determine the location of the substring.arrow_forwardProuramming Exercise 3 (40 noints): [call it Ass2-Q3.asm] Write an ASM program that prompts the user to enter a string of at most 128 characters and then displays the string in reverse order, with: cach upper-case letter converted to its corresponding lower-case letter, and cach lower-case letter converted to its corresponding upper-case letter. The program should also display the number of uppercase letters after displaying the output string, as well as the total number of characters in the string. For instance, a sample execution of "Ass2-Q3.exe" with the input string "An Input Line!" is shown below C:Programminglasm>Ass2-Q3 Enter a string of at most 128 characters: An Input Line! Here it is, with all lowercases and uppercases flipped, and in reverse order: !ENII TUPNI Na There are 8 upper-case letters after conversion. There are 14 characters in the string.

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!!!
