C :: Converting To Lowercase And Counting Words
Apr 12, 2014
I am writing a program when the beginning it you have to pick which step to preform out of a few steps. Once you choose the step. The user is asked to input what is asked and it should preform it. I have completed most of my steps but the one step giving me a hard time is converting a user inputed sentence into all lowercase letters, and then count the words of it. My program starts out like this if you pick this step Code: else
if (choice == 3) {
/* Gather user's input */
printf("
You have chosen to convert a sentence to all lowercase letters and count the words
"
"Enter the sentence: ");
gets ( sentence );
Call the function to convert the whole sentence to lowercase and count the number of words */
lowercase_string ( &sentence);
countSentence ( &sentence);
} /* End if statement */
this is the easy part in which I presume I did correctly, but now this is where I am getting the problems:
/* Prompts user to enter a sentence and convert it to lowercase and count the number of words */
void
countSentence (char *sentence)
void
lowercase_string (char*)
{
[code]....
I want to output the original sentence, then the sentence with all lower case letters, then at last output the number of words in the sentence. I declared all my variables up top, and I am wondering where my mistake is. When trying to compile it, I only get syntax errors which I don't understand.

how to convert a string containing Uppercase/Lowercase/Whitespace/Special Characters to only Lowercase and removing the whitespace and characters.
For example, a message like:
"The: sky is (blue), the wAter is also blue'."
Change that message to:
"theskyisbluethewaterisalsoblue"

okay so this program is basically getting the files from user input then reading the original file and convert the string into a uppercase/lowercase form and save it into another file. Is there a way to save the string from the first file to a variable then convertin the string in the variable and copy that onto the new file? So far i have
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
int main() {

This code is compile but must have some upgrades :
1. The algorithm count double space how 1 word this is not correct. Probably have to add condition like ' '&'a-z'||'A-Z' but in unknown to me reason this is don't work
2. If there is one words without space then counted don't detect this word, it is incorrect.
Code:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main () {
char ch;
cout <<"enter your text: " ;

I'm trying to read files, count words in the files and go in directories. The problem is how I return numbers of total words and total directories. When it comes to nftw(), I am little confused.
Code: /*

* Usage:
*
* ./countWord <path>
*/
#define _XOPEN_SOURCE 700
#define _POSIX_C_SOURCE 200809L

I am writing a program for my class in C++. For this program we are required to use different fuctions and prototypes outside of main. We have to determine the number of characters, lines, sentences, digits, words, etc. in a particular function the user types in.

I am trying to write a program that counts specific words that a user inputs "Howdy/howdy/Whoop/whoop" (yes I go to Texas A&M, hence those specific words) I am having an issue where it wont count the first word even if it is "Howdy"
For example if I put it:
"Howdy howdy whoop Whoop" - it only outputs that it counted 3 words
now if I were to do:
"Hello Howdy howdy whoop Whoop" - it would count 4.
Code:
#include "std_lib_facilities_4.h"
int main(){
cout << "Please enter desired words, when you have entered all words, please type CTRL+d (EOF Command)
" << endl;
//It was assumed that EOF command was going to be used here hence the necessity of 'CTRL+d'
vector<string>words;

I have to write a program (on linux) which will count character, words and lines like wc linux command. I'm trying to write this for last 3 days... First part of app I did and it works fine - command line options to choose. Then I've got a function read_file which I have to use to read a file. One of the options is to get the file name from user and if user will not type any name then the standard file is ubuntu dict file /usr/share/dict/words, this is not working as well...
Counting characters and lines is working fine but because I don't know how to get text from read_file wrote code to read file interior this functions. Words counting is working partly - everything is fine until there are two or more spaces, tabs one after another then counts extra words. Finally I need child processes in words and lines counting functions. Parent process should waits for all childs to finish and should be pipes to submit character counts back to parent process. How to do all this things with processes...
Code:
#include <getopt.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <ctype.h>
#include <errno.h>
/*size of character buffer to read in a file. */
#define BUFFSIZE 1000000

I wrote a code that counts numbers of words in a sentence, simply by counting spaces... but instead of showing a true number it shows a wrong number.
#include <iostream.h>
#include <conio.h>
int check(char eh[10000]) {
int he=0;
for (int i=0; i<=10000 ;i++) {

I am trying to read into a file that has something like
I have 5 apples and 9 bananas.
Sam has 8 apples and 6 bananas.
and I need to replace the numbers with words. For example I need to change the "5" to five and so on. The problem is that im not sure how to access and then replace just the numbers.
#include <iostream>
#include <cmath>
#include <fstream>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;
int main() {
ifstream in_stream;

I am having trouble in creating a program (named "up.c") that should do the following:
- if you run the command ("up") with no arguments, it should read input from stdin and display it on stdout, converting lowercase letters to uppercase.
- if you run the command with one or more files (as arguments to the "up" command), your program should read input from each file and display it on stdout, again converting lowercase letters to uppercase.
I'm trying to create a single program that can do both of these, and handle errors gracefully. I've found that some codes work to convert the letters, but they seem overly simple and aren't giving me what I'm looking for in my program.

I have this statement - while(strcmp(x[i],"Stop")!=0); - is there anyway to compare x[i] to all the possible forms of "stop" (Stop, STOP, sTop, etc)?

Have a program prompt the user for a filename to open. Change every alphabetic character in the file to a capital letter. Numbers and special characters should not be changed. Print the output to the screen.
My problem currently is I can't get it to open a file in the same directory as the programs .exe file. I get else statements error message each time.
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <ctype.h> /*for toupper function*/
#define MAXSIZE 1024

I have to read multiple text files and change all uppercase to lowercase. i also put in a little extra with finding values and spaces and punctuation. But nothing comes out so i don't know if the file is even being read or maybe I'm reading it but not accessing the right way.
string stdins;
char data;
//string line;
vector<char> a;
ifstream read;
read.open("ds.txt");
while( getline(cin,stdins) ) {

So I need to count uppercase and lowercase letters from file, and I always get 0. What is the problem with this part of code?
