C# :: Capitalize First Letter In Every Word In A String?

Jan 7, 2014

I have a difficulty with string methods for some reason. I tried solving a question from my book, which requires me to capitalize the first letter of every word in a string. I kept trying for maybe two hours yesterday, re-reading the string chapter to see if I'm forgetting a certain method or if something similar was discussed in the examples but I didn't find anything. I also googled it, and found a few answers, none of which I understood. They mostly had keywords or methods I wasn't familiar with. Anyway, here's where I am so far.

class Program {
static string UpperCase(string s) {
int place; string b, st1, st2,st3; char letter;
for (int i = 0; i <= s.Length - 1; i++) {
if (i == 0) {

[Code]....

The code compiles without any errors, but when I enter a string it capitalizes correctly for the first two words and then it starts capitalizing letters in the middle of the words.

C++ :: Capitalize Every Other Word In A User Input String

Nov 14, 2014

I've been agonizing over this all day. The assignment is to capitalize every other word in a user input string.

My logic is as follows:

1. I have the program get each character until it encounters white space (using for loop)
2. Then it should capitalize each character after the white space until it encounters another white space (using while loop).

My problem though is when i try to create a condition for while loop i have to terminate is when white space is encountered, but the very first character to start the while loop is a white space..

I was told to define boolean values, but after trying a few boolean conditions I'm still stuck..

Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <cctype>
using namespace std;

[Code] .....

The assignment is to read a data file with a list of names, capitalize the first character of the first and last name by making an array and subtracting 32 from the character, and then outputting the names onto the screen. So far I have:

using namespace std;
int main () {
string line;
ifstream myfile ("Names.txt");

[Code] ....

this allows me to read a name, and capitalize the first letter of the first name. How to capitalize the first letter of the last name.

C :: Program To Capitalize Every Other Word Of User Input

Feb 26, 2013

I'm trying to write a program that capitalizes every other word of a user output. (ex: if input is "i love you", the output is "i LoVe YoU").

I am using a for loop (although an if loop might be easier?) and I'm assuming that it is possible to write this program using a for loop (although I may be wrong--maybe only if loops can write this program). I have everything down EXCEPT the last step where I have to print the entire sequence. What i have so far is:

Code:
#include <cs50.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
{
// get user input
printf("Type a sentence: ");
string s = GetString();

[Code] .....

The code above basically only prints out the capital letter (ex: input is "hello", output is "EL"). I don't know how to print out the entire sequence.

C++ :: Capitalize First Character Of Each Sentence In String

May 31, 2013

Write a function that accepts a pointer to a C-String as an argument and capitalizes the first character of each sentence in the string. For instance, if the string argument is "hello. my name is Joe. what is your name?" the function should manipulate the string so it contains "Hello. My name is Joe. What is your name?" Demonstrate the function in a program that asks the user to input a string and then passes it to the function. The modified string should be displayed on screen. Optional Exercise: Write an overloaded version of this function that accepts a string class object as its argument.

#include<iostream>
#include<cctype>
#include<cstdlib>
using namespace std;
void capitalize(char sentence[], int const SIZE);

[Code]...

Not even sure if I'm headed in the correct direction, but I'm getting the following errors:

E:CPT-233Sentence Capitalizer.cpp In function `void capitalize(char*, int)':
34 E:CPT-233Sentence Capitalizer.cpp call of overloaded `strstr(char&, const char[2])' is ambiguous
note E:CPT-233<internal>:0 candidates are: char* std::strstr(const char*, const char*) <near match>
note E:CPT-233<internal>:0 char* std::strstr(char*, const char*) <near match>

what I'm doing wrong?

C/C++ :: Scan Through One String To Find A Letter That Also Appears In Another?

Feb 3, 2015

I need a code that will search through string 1 and find the first place with a letter that also appears in string 2 and return the pointer of that place. This is what I wrote:

char strPbrk(const char *s1, const char *s2) {
char p = *s1;
for (int i = 0; i < strlen(s1); i++)
for (int j = 0; j < strlen(s2); j++)
if ((p+i) == *(s2+j))
return p;
return NULL;
}

but it continues to return wrong values idk what I'm doing wrong.

C :: Print First Word Of The String

Apr 12, 2013

1. Create a variable named index and nitialize it to zero(0)
2. Prompt for and input a string value from thekeyboard. Store the string inthe string variable newstring[80].
3. While (newstring[index] does not equal ‘’).

i. Display the character at newstring[index] followed by a NL
ii. Increment index ====================================== ...

And this is what i have done so far and i dont know where I am wrong ...

Code:
#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
int index = 0; //initialize index to zero since first elementin an array is numbered zero
char newstring[80];

C++ ::  How To Verify If A String Equals A Certain Word

Apr 3, 2013

I want to see if the value of a string equals a certain text. But I can't make it. There are two problems :

1) It seems 'tolower' doesn't work with strings. What to use then?
2) When I delete tolower, it works, but I have an output of "You didn't enter 'add'" even when I do enter 'add'. What's the problem? Is it due to the null byte? What to change?

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[]) //This was added automatically by Visual Studio.

C++ :: How To Turn A String Word Into Letters

Dec 9, 2013

I'm having trouble trying to turn a word into letters. I've seen other posts but they deal with a sentence and it only outputs the words only. What I want to know is how do they take a word (Ex: "word") and break it into individual letters, where I want to store them in a vector of string?

If it's not too much trouble, I would prefer without using pointers or "std:: " marks, since I am trying to avoid pointers and I'm using "using namespace std" all the time.

Ex:

In the example "word", it should output into:

"w"
"o"
"r"
"d"

and I will push them back into a vector of string where each vector element contains a letter.

C++ :: Outputting First Word Of Each Sentence In String

Dec 20, 2014

I have been trying to get this to work for a while now - with no success.

Basically I am trying to write a function which the returns the first word of each input sentence in a single string - this is part of a larger cryptography program I am working on.

So for example, if this string was passed into the function:

"This is what I mean. Is it right? A poor puppy abandoned. Secret torturing of dogs are happening. Message: be on the watch."

It should return:

//declared in class "steganalyse"
string cyphertext;
string punctuation = ".?!;:'";
book is_first_word

[Code] .....

But this only returns the first word:

This

Any other way to return the first word of each sentence in a string.
