Chapter 13, Problem 9PC
Letter Frequencies
The letter e is the most frequently used letter in English prose, and the letter z is the least frequently used. A friend of yours doing a sociology experiment believes that this may not necessarily be true of the writings of first-year college students. To test his theory, he asks you to write a
Hint: Use an integer array of size 128, and use the ASCII values of letters to index into the array to store and retrieve counts for the letters.

C++
c++ write a hangman game that randomly generates a word and prompts the user to guess one letter at a time, as shown in the sample run. Each letter in the word is displayed as asterisk. when the user makes a correct guess, the actual letter is then displayed. When the user finishes a word, display the number of misses and ask the user whether to continue to play with another word. Declare an array to store word as follow:
Store 20 different words in a text file, read them into an array. Randomly pick a number 1..20 and use this word for the current round.
Write a program that reads 10,000 words into an array of strings. The program will then read a second file that contains an undetermined number of words and search the first array for each word. The program will then report the number of words in the second list that were found on the first list.
Read the 10,000 words from the "List of 10000 Random Words" text file into an array of strings. Then read the words from the "Search Words" text file, one at a time, and search for them in the array. Report the count of the number of words found.

DO NOT USE AN ARRAY The program will generate a random number (between 1 and 4581) to pick a word from the file - this is the word you then have to guess. Note: if the random number you generate is 42, you need the 42nd word - so loop 41 times picking up the word from the file and not doing anything with it, it is the 42nd you need. Here is how you will do this: String word: for (int k=0; k<41; k++) {word=scnr.nextLine(); }//end loop and now pick up the word you want word=scnr.nextLine() //this is the one you want The user will be allowed to guess a letter as many times as it takes - but 10 wrong guesses and they lose!! Eventually either they won or lost. In case they lost print out the answer. Javaarrow_forwardExercise 1: Write a program that generates a sequence of 20 random values between 0 and 99 in an array, prints the sequence, sorts it, and prints the sorted sequence. Use the sort method from the standard Java library. Exercise 2: Write a program that stores a list of countries: "Egypt", "Switzerland", "Argentina", "Spain", "Portugal", "Luxemburg", etc. Initialize your array with a single statement. Then print out the array. Use the sort function as before to sort the countries in alphabetical order. Reprint your array. Exercise 3: Implement exercises 1 and 2 using ArrayList. Use the Collections.sort method for sorting. After you have printed and sorted your results, then append an additional element to each list and reprint your ArrayLists. Notice that the new items will appear just at the end and will not be sorted. Resort and print out the new ArrayLists again. To clarify, you should print out your ArrayLists after your first sort, after adding items with the…arrow_forward
- can someone please modify the following code? what I need the code to do is to sort customers' last names alphabetically, the code takes data from a text file that sorts it then it reads from a file. I would rather the code not have an array because the text file store unlimited customers. void sortPassengers(){ int x;int last, i, save;char list[100]; ifstream myfile;myfile.open("allCustomers.txt");char output[100];for (i=0; i<=9; i++) if (myfile.is_open()){while (!myfile.eof()){ myfile >> output;cout<<output; }}myfile.close(); for (last=8; last>=0; last--) for (i=0; i<=last; i++); if (list[i]>list[i+1]) { save=list[i]; list[i]=list[i+1]; list[i+1]=save; } ofstream duplicate; //creates a new txt file that puts names.txt in alphabetical order//writes text into fileduplicate.open("allCustomers.txt"); for (i=0; i<=3; i++)duplicate <<output<<endl; myfile.close();return ;}arrow_forwardDownload the following text file: IntegerArray TXT File This file contains all of the 100,000 integers between 1 and 100,000 (inclusive) in some order, with no integer repeated. Your task is to compute the number of inversions in the file given, where the i^{th}ith row of the file indicates the i^{th}ith entry of an array. Because of the large size of this array, you should implement the fast divide-and-conquer algorithm covered in the video lectures. The numeric answer for the given input file should be typed in the space below. So if your answer is 1198233847, then just type 1198233847 in the space provided without any space / commas / any other punctuation marks. You can make up to 5 attempts, and we'll use the best one for grading. (We do not require you to submit your code, so feel free to use any programming language you want --- just type the final numeric answer in the following space.) [TIP: before submitting, first test the correctness of your program on some small…arrow_forwardComplete a C++ program that reads from a file named fruits.txt which contains a list of fruits. First, the fruits should be read into an array. Then, your program should ask the user for a specific fruit to search. If the word is in the list of words, the program should return “Fruit located at index: X” where the X is the index of the array where the fruit is located. If the fruit is not in the array, your program should return “I didn’t find the fruit!”. This message should only print once at the very end if the fruit is not found. If there is an error opening the file, your program should print an error message. If the fruit you are looking for is in the array in multiple locations, your program only needs to print one of the indexes. The following presents a sample words.txt and execution result. fruits.txt 6 apple carrot banana date grape fig in c++ programingarrow_forward
- Using C++ Write a program that reads 10,000 words into an array of strings; the "List of 10,000 Random Words" file is on Moodle. The program will then read a second file (the list of "Search Words" is also on Moodle) that contains an undetermined number of words and search the first array for each word. The program will then report the number of words in the second list that were found on the first list. Do not use an array for the second file, process the words as they are read. Note that some of these "words" might have spaces; handle your input accordingly.arrow_forwardIn C Programming Language Palindrome: “A palindrome is a word, phrase, number, or other sequence of characters which reads the same backward or forward, such as ‘madam’ or ‘kayak’” (excerpt from Wikipedia).Write a program that reads 8 words from Palindrome.txt and checks whether the word you read is a palindrome (please read its description above) or not. Print the index numbers of all the palindrome words in your array. You are required to read words character by character into a character array.• Write readFile function, which gets a file pointer and a two-dim array, to read each word(bunch of characters) line by line and store them into a two-dim character array.• Write findSize function takes a one-dim array and returns its actual size.• Write isPalindrome function takes a one-dim character array to check whether the content is a polindrome or not.

You do not knowexactly how many numbers there are in the file (your program should be generic),so declare an array of sufficiently large size and use the while loop to read thenumbers into the array.• Then, use a programmer-defined function to sort this array in ascending order. Youcannot create a separate array for this purpose.

- Computer Science Write a program that uses 3 command line arguments to search a list of float numbers in a file and prints out the result of whether the number was found or not on the console. Also, it prints the array in the reverse order (not sorted but reverse order of how the numbers were read in). The first argument is the name of the input file which has the numbers to be searched, the second is an integer specifying how many numbers are in the input file and the third argument is the float number being searched for. Use dynamic memory allocation for the array and use a function (that returns a boolean value) to do the searching. Also make sure in the beginning of your program, that the program will execute only if exactly three arguments (other than executable name itself) are specified. at the command line.arrow_forwardJAVA PROGRAM Lab #2.
