Write a program to count the number of words, lines and characters in a text
Program finding number of words, blank spaces, special symbols, digits, vowels using pointers
Count Number of Words using Pointer
#include<stdio.h> #include<stdlib.h> #include<ctype.h> #include<conio.h> /*low implies that position of pointer is within a word*/ #define low 1 /*high implies that position of pointer is out of word.*/ #define high 0 void main() { int nob,now,nod,nov,nos,pos=high; char *s; nob=now=nod=nov=nos=0; clrscr(); printf("Enter any string:"); gets(s); while(*s!='\0') { if(*s==' ') /* counting number of blank spaces. */ { pos=high; ++nob; } else if(pos==high) /* counting number of words. */ { pos=low; ++now; } if(isdigit(*s)) /* counting number of digits. */ ++nod; if(isalpha(*s)) /* counting number of vowels */ switch(*s) { case 'a': case 'e': case 'i': case 'o': case 'u': case 'A': case 'E': case 'I': case 'O': case 'U': ++nov; break; } /* counting number of special characters */ if(!isdigit(*s)&&!isalpha(*s)) ++nos; s++; } printf("\nNumber of words %d",now); printf("\nNumber of spaces %d",nob); printf("\nNumber of vowels %d",nov); printf("\nNumber of digits %d",nod); printf("\nNumber of special characters %d",nos); getch(); }
Output :
Enter any string : pritesh a taral from c4learn.com Number of words 5 Number of spaces 4 Number of vowels 9 Number of digits 1 Number of special characters 5
