Chapter 9, Problem 4PP
Write a function that takes a C string as an input parameter and reverses the string. The function should use two pointers, front and rear. The front pointer should initially reference the first character in the string, and the rear pointer should initially reference the last character in the string. Reverse the string by swapping the characters referenced by front and rear, then increment front to point to the next character and decrement rear to point to the preceding character, and so on, until the entire string is reversed. Write a main

A palindrome is a string that reads the same in its reverse. For example maam, wow, racecar, madam etc. Write a function in C++ named palindrome. The function will take a character array as input and will return 1 if the string is a palindrome and 0 otherwise.
Write a user-defined function that compares two string with each other.
If first one is equal to second returns 0, greater than second returns 1 and less than second
returns -1.
Your function prototype is int compareString(char *, char *)
Write another user-defined function which gets a pointer to a character string containing the
name of months. Function will return the name of month depending on its arguments.
For example :
if it gets 2 it will return February.
if it gets O it will return incorrect month
if it gets 9 it will return September
Your function prototype is char "month_name(int n)
Write a main function to test your functions. Do not use library functions to compare two
strings.
Example Input:
Ankara
Antalya
4
Example Output:
-1
April
Write a function which will take 2 arguments. They are:
• Sentence
• position
Your first task is to take these arguments as user input and pass these values to the function parameters.
Your second task is to implement the function and remove the characters at the index number which is divisible by the position (Avoid the index number 0 as it will always be divisible by the position, so no need to
remove the index 0 character). Finally, add the removed characters at the end of the new string.
Return the value and then finally, print the new string at the function call.

- Complete the process_name() function that takes a single string parameter name. You can assume that the name will always be in the format first name surname with a single space character between the first name and the surname. The function returns a string consisting of the first letter of the first name followed by the first three letters of the surname. All of the characters in the returned string should be in lowercase. Some examples of the function being used are shown below: For example: Test Result print(process_name("Damir Azhar")) dazh print(process_name("Ann Cameron")) acam Answer: (penalty regime: 0 %) Reset answer 1v def process_name (name): 2arrow_forwardPlease Help C++ Write a function that returns an integer and accepts a pointer to a C-string as an argument.

- write a python program 9. You are a class teacher at a kindergarten school. As a task, you asked your students to write a paragraph. Unfortunately, you notice that most of the students did not use capital letters correctly. Your task is to write a function which takes a string as its only parameter and returns a new copy of the string that has been correctly capitalized. Your function should: Capitalize the first letter in the string Capitalize the first letter after a full-stop, exclamation mark or question mark • Capitalize the word “i" if it is in lowercase. Summary: You have to write a function that reads a string from the user and capitalizes. The string is then returned and displayed. Sample Input ('my favourite animal is a dog. a dog has sharp teeth so that it can eat flesh very easily. do you know my pet dog's name? i love my pet very much.')

- This is for my C++ 2 class, so still a beginner C++ program: Case Manipulator Write a program with three functions: upper, lower, and flip. The upper function should accept a C-string as an argument. It should step through all the characters in the string, converting each to uppercase. The lower function, too, should accept a pointer to a C-string as an argument. It should step through all the characters in the string, converting each to lowercase. Like upper and lower, flip should also accept a C-string. As it steps through the string, it should test each character to determine whether it is upper- or lowercase. If a character is uppercase, it should be converted to lowercase. If a character is lowercase, it should be converted to uppercase. Test the functions by asking for a string in function main, then passing it to them in the following order: flip, lower, and upper.arrow_forwardin C program pleasearrow_forwardWrite a function that accepts either a pointer to a C-string, or a string object, as its argument. The function should return the character that appears most frequently in the string. Demonstrate the function in a complete program.arrow_forward
