Q5. Write a function called findString to determine if one character string exists inside another string. The first argument to the function should be the character string that is to be searched and the second argument is the string you are interested in finding. If the function finds the specified string, have it return the location in the source string where the string was found. If the function does not find the string, have it return -1. For example: For function, findString ("a chatterbox", "hat") It searches the string "a chatterbox" for the string "hat". Because "hat" does exist inside the source string, the function returns Location= 3 to indicate the starting position inside the source string where "hat" was found.

Write a program that reads in a line consisting of a students name, Social Security number, user ID, and password. The program outputs the string in which all the digits of the Social Security number and all the characters in the password are replaced by x. (The Social Security number is in the form 000-00-0000, and the user ID and the password do not contain any spaces.) Your program should not use the operator [] to access a string element. Use the appropriate functions described in Table 7-1.
To translate a sentence into pig Latin, create a function. When a word is written in pig Latin, its first character is dropped, shifted to the word's tail, and the letters "ay" are added. For instance, "hello world" would be "ellohay orldway" in pig Latin. Your function can be written to assume that each word has at least two characters, is separated by a space, and is free of punctuation.
Write a function validate_date(date_string) which takes in a datestring and checks if the datestring is valid. If the string is valid, we want to return a tuple containing True and the date_string itself. If the string is invalid for a specific reason, we want to return a tuple containing False and the error code explaining what was wrong with the date string passed in. Below is the error codes for reasons why a string can be invalid (based on criteria on validity, read above): -1 --> date_string does not separate the day, month, and year with slashes. -2 --> day, month, or year are not numeric. -3 --> month out of range (not between 1 and 12) -4 --> day is out of range (not between 1 and last day of the month) For instance, if validate_date(date_string) is called with "01/12/2022" as the argument, the return value is (True, "01/12/2022") because "01/12/2022" is a valid string. If validate_date(date_string) is called with "01/44/2022" as the argument, the return value is…
Write a function replace_head_tail that takes a string str1 and replaces the first X and last Y characters of the string and returns the resulting string. For example, replace_head_tail("corona virus", 4, 3) returns "rusna vicoro".
uestion 42: Return whether a string consists of a single letter In the function below, return True if the input string parameter consists of a single uppercase letter; otherwise, return False. Most solutions would do this in two logical steps: first testing if the string consists of a single character and, second, testing whether that character is one of the uppercase letters (which can be done by seeing if it is alphabetically between A and Z, inclusive).
Write a function to determine whether a string is a permutation of a palindrome given a string. A word or phrase that reads the same both forward and backward is known as a palindrome. Letters are rearranged in a permutation. The palindrome need not contain only words from dictionaries. EXAMPLEInput: Tact CoaOutput: True (permutations: "taco cat'; "atco eta·; etc.)
Write a function called extractor() that takes a name as a parameter and counts every vowel present in it. The function should also identify and contact the consonants in another string. Finally, RETURN the total number of total vowels present in the name and the consonant string.Note: The name could be a mixture of uppercase & lowercase letters.Sample Input 1:MuhaiminulFunction call 1:extractor("Muhaiminul")Sample Output 1:(5, 'mhmnl')Explanation 1:Here, in the given name, we have 5 vowels (uaiiu). That's why 5 in the output. 'mhmnl' are the consonants present in the name.Sample Input 2:iLiyanaFunction call 2:extractor("iLiyana")Sample Output 2:(4, 'lyn')Explanation 2:Here, in the given name, we have 4 vowels (iiaa). That's why 4 in the output. 'lyn' are the consonants present in the name.

1. Write a function that receives a string of characters as its input, and check if it is symmetric to a dollar sign. You may use following function header: bool isInLanguage_1(string aString) 2. Write a function that receives a string of characters and return true if the string is in language, otherwise it returns false. You may use following function header (Assume a string is in language if it is read from the left side is the same as it is read from the right side. For example, a-b-d-c is not in the language, a-b-c-a-c-b-a is in language): bool isInLanguage_2(string aString) I tried using a while loop, but for some reason, I am not getting the output I was hoping for and would like you to check this out.
In C++, Write a function that receives a string of characters and return true if the string is in language, otherwise it returns false. You may use following function header (Assume a string is in language if it is read from the left side is the same as it is read from the right side. For example, a-b-d-c is not in the language, a-b-c-a-c-b-a is in language): bool isInLanguage_2(string aString) And I also, want to know if my if statement is incorrect, and if it is how is it incorrect?
Ex. 8.4) The following functions are all intended to check whether a string contains any lowercase letters, but at least some of them are wrong. For each function, describe what the function actually does (assuming that the parameter is a string).
Write a function reverse(instring) to take a string and reverse it.
