C :: Find Number Of Capital Letters And Punctuations In A String

Jan 28, 2015

write a C program which repeatedly reads in sentences from the user and reports on how many capital letters are in the sentence and how many punctuation characters. Your program will stop asking for input once the user has entered in a blank line. Consider the following example usage with the program. User input is marked in underline:

Enter a sentence: John and Mary went to Fred's house.
You used 3 capital letters and 2 punctuation characters.
Enter a sentence: I like A&W more than McDonald's.
You used 5 capital letters and 3 punctuation characters.
Enter a sentence:
Good bye!

Hint: make use of the standard C functions ispunct and isupper. Other requirements. You must make two functions.

Make a function called find_characters, which has a return type of void, and which has three parameters: one of type char * (a string to find characters in), one of type int * (a reference to int variable indicating how many capital letters are in the string) and the last one also of type int * (a reference to an int variable indicating how many punctuation characters are in the string). Your find_characters function should scan the string and update the two variables it has references to.Make a main function.

This function should repeatedly read in a string from the user, call your find_characters function, and output the information returned to it by the find_characters function indicating how many capital letters and how many punctuation characters were in the string. Your main function should stop reading in input when the user enters in a blank string (i.e., the user just hits enter without entering anything else in). You may assume that the user will not enter in a sentence longer than 100 characters

Code:
#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
#include<ctype.h>
#include<string.h>

int main(void) {

C++ :: Text Format - Displaying Capital Letters

Jul 4, 2013

Provide three menu options to format the text entered in QTextEdit to

(1) display the letters in capital letters
(2) display the text in red
(3) align the text in the center

I did the 2nd and the 3rd part but I can't find the capital letter part

Code:
if (name == "Color") {
textEdit->setTextColor("red");
}
if (name == "Capital") {
textEdit->??????;
}
if (name == "Center") {
textEdit->setAlignment(Qt::AlignHCenter);
}

C++ :: Removing Punctuations Off From A String

Jun 5, 2013

I'm working on a problem in which I've to design a program in which the punctuations should be removed from the string. For eg., if input str is: "Hello!!"; the output must be: "Hello".

I'm not sure how to remove a sub-string (if that's the right word!!) from a string. So, I designed a program which print out the punctuations. For eg., if input str is: "Hey!!"; the output would be: ! !

Here it is:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main (){
cout << "Enter a string" << endl;

[Code] ....

So, I want to know what should be added to this program so that the punctuations can be removed; or should I rewrite another program for that?

C :: Detecting Number Of Uppercase Letters?

Just wrote this extremely simple program but it seems to be malfunctioning. It counts correctly the number of uppercase letters in a string so long as i don't use the space-bar. once I add a space it only counts the number of uppercase letters of the first word..

printf("I ..........ing love programming");

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
main()
{
char text[200];
int i = 0;
int uppercase = 0;

C++ :: Generating String Of Random Letters

My problem says: Have the user enter a number from 1-80 then print out a string of random letters(a to z lowercase) of that length.

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main() {
int i=0;
int num;

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++ :: Number Of Characters / Operators / Uppercase Letters And Numerical Digits

May 5, 2014

I have to code a simple program who determining the number of Characters (A character could be any alphabets, digits, punctuation marks, or special , Operators ( Operators are those symbols that are used in mathematica expression, such as,'+', '*', '/', '-', and so on.), Uppercase letters (Uppercase characters are those from A..Z) and Numerical digits ( A digit is any of the Hindu-Arabic numerals from 0..9). Why the output is wrong!

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <fstream>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std ;
int main() {
char text;

[Code] .....

This is my input file This is a possible factorial function in a programming language called LISP

(defun factorial (n)
(if (< n 2)
1
(* n (factorial (1- n)))))

This is my output:

The number of characters = 113
The number of operators = 3
The number of numerical digits = 3
Uppercase letters = 5

I think that "characters" is wrong, but I do not know why !

C++ :: Word Counter - Calculate Number Of Letters And Give Total Cost

Nov 4, 2013

I am currently working on an assignment.

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
char letter;
int count = 0;
double ppl = 0;
double finalCost = ppl * (count - 1);

[Code] ....

I am trying to create a word counter program that asks for the price per letter and then asks for the sentence they are writing. The app should then calculate the number of letters and give the total cost similar to:

You have 40 letters at $3.45 per letter, and your total is $138.00.

Everything compiles fine but when I run it the inputs don't work and it outputs:

You have -1 per letter, and your total cost is $-0.

C :: Converting A String Array Into Uppercase Letters From File

C/C++ :: Function That Generates A Random String Of Uppercase Letters

Apr 19, 2014

I need to write a C function that generates a random character array (i.e. string) of uppercase letters - getchar and putchar are the only IO functions that I can use. Below is what I have already - I am iterating for as many times as I am required to, and am modulating rand() by 25, (total letters in the alphabet). I'm trying to see how to get the random letter from the % 25, and also how to do this without toupper() [not sure if I can use that function].

void getRandomStr()){
char str[40];
for (int i = 0; i < 40; i++){
char c = rand() % 25);
str[i] = toupper(c);
}}

C :: Strcpy - How To Update Old String In Stars Array With New That Includes Correct Letters

Apr 25, 2013

This for loop replaces the stars ******** in an array that contains a word to be guessed with the correct letter (c) that the user inputs if the word contains that letter.

Problem: After every guess the same hidden string of stars ******* is displayed instead of ex: ***W**** (assuming W was entered by the user)

How can I update the old ******** string in the Stars array with the new string that includes the correct letters chosen, so after every correct guess at a letter in the word a new string is displayed including the correct letters chosen?

I'm pretty sure I have to use strcpy but not sure how to implement it using a loop.

Code:
for(i = 0; i < strlen(unscrambledWord); i++) {
if(unscrambledWord [i] == c) {
Stars[i] = c;
} }
