Counting the character occurrences in a file For this task you are asked to write a program that will open a file called “story.txt" and count the number of occurrences of each letter from the alphabet in this file. At the end your program will output the following report: Number of occurrences for the alphabets: a was used – times. b was used – times. c was used – times. .and so, on Assume the file contains only lower-case letters and for simplicity just a single paragraph. Your program should keep a counter associated with each letter of the alphabet (26 counters) [Hint: Use array] Your program should also print a histogram of characters count by adding a new function print Histogram (int counters []). This function receives the counters from the previous task and instead of printing the number of times each character was used, prints a histogram of the counters. An example histogram for three letters is shown below) [Hint: Use the extended asci character 254]: | C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe E Press any key to continue
