Chapter 16, Problem 26RQE
Explanation of Solution
Function template:
In C++, a function template is referred as a “generic” function, which can work with different data types.
- While writing a function template, a programmer should use a “type parameter” to denote a “generic” data type instead of using the actual parameter.
- The compiler generates the code, when it encounters a function call to a function template. This code will handle the particular data type which is used in the function call.
- The compiler indentifies the argument type and generates the code to work with those types.
- The generated code is referred as “template function”.
Example:
For example consider the following function template for finding a cube of the specified value:
//Include the required header files
#include<iostream>
#include<string>
using namespace std;
//template prefix
template <class T>
//function template definition of ...

Problem C. Durdle Match
You are tasked with helping write part of an exciting new word-guessing game, “Durdle”. The game is one in which a player attempts to guess a five-letter word in successive guesses. In this problem and the next one, we will build an implementation of this word-guessing game. First, to support this game, we will write a function named durdle_match(guess, target) that takes in two strings - a player’s guess, and the target word that the player is attempting to guess. Each of the given words is five letters long. This function should return a five-letter string consisting of the letters B, G, and Y that has a meaning associated with the guess as follows:
B: This letter in the guess does not appear in the target string
Y: This letter in the guess appears in the target string in another location ● G: This letter in the guess appears in the same location in the target string
Examples:
>>> durdle_match('quick','perky')
'BBBBY'

Here are struct data members:
integer for the ID of a student
character array for the name. The size of the array is 15
floating-point numbers for the GPA
an integer for a student status
Write the declaration of the struct, lines of code to dynamically allocate size of the struct defined previously, the user will be asked to enter the size of the array, and a function that receives an array of the struct, the length of the array and the student ID as parameters. It should return the name, GPA and student status if found. Make sure to address if not found.

- In c++, please and thank you! Write a function that dynamically allocates an array of integers. The function should accept an integer argument indicating the number of elements to allocate. The function should return a pointer to the array.arrow_forward9.12: Element Shifter C++Write a function that accepts an int array and the array’s size as arguments. The function should create a new array that is one element larger than the argument array. The first element of the new array should be set to 0. Element 0 of the argument array should be copied to element 1 of the new array, element 1 of the argument array should be copied to element 2 of the new array, and so forth. The function should return a pointer to the new array. Demonstrate the function by using it in a main program that reads an integer N (that is not more than 50) from standard input and then reads N integers from a file named data into an array. The program then passes the array to your element shifter function, and prints the values of the new expanded and shifted array on standard output, one value per line. You may assume that the file data has at least N values. Prompts And Output Labels. There are no prompts for the integer and no labels for the reversed array…arrow_forward"Pointers are known to have issues with dangling and wild pointers."

The Ocaml type signature val f : 'a - > ' a = <fun> indicates that function f has parameter and return value that can be any type , as long as the types of f's parameter and return value are the same. - True - Falsearrow_forward(CarbonFootprint Calculator: Arrays of Function Pointers in C) Using arrays of function pointers, you can specify a set of functions that are called with the same types of arguments and return the same type of data. Governments and companies worldwide are becoming increasingly concerned with carbon footprints (annual releases of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere) from buildings burning various types of fuels for heat, vehicles burning fuels for power,and the like. Many scientists blame these greenhouse gases for the phenomenon called global warming.Create three functions in C that help calculate the carbon footprint of a building, a car and a bicycle,respectively. Each function should input appropriate data from the user then calculate and displaythe carbon footprint. (Check out a few websites that explain how to calculate carbon footprints.)Each function should receive no parameters and return void.

- 5.13 LAB: Acronyms C++ An acronym is a word formed from the initial letters of words in a set phrase. Define a function named CreateAcronym that takes a string parameter and returns the acronym of the string parameter. Append a period (.) after each letter in the acronym. If a word begins with a lower case letter, don't include that letter in the acronym. Then write a main program that reads a phrase from input, calls CreateAcronym() with the input phrase as argument, and outputs the returned acronym. Assume the input has at least one upper case letter. Ex: If the input is: Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers the output should be: I.E.E.E. The program must define and call a function:string CreateAcronym(string userPhrase) Hint: Use isupper() to check if a letter is upper case. I try the function void CreateAcronym (char [], char[]). I need another solution with string CreateAcronym(string userPhrase).

- A function template creates definitions of functions that differ only in the type of data they manipulate is it true or falsearrow_forwardTemplate Specialization in c++ is used to write generic code. Template code is written once and use for any data type including user-defined data types.Example: sort() can be written and used to sort any data type items. Create a Template code that reads input from the user, user can enter any type of data like integer, double, float.sum() is the template method that can take any two types of data and add it and return the sum of the two numbers.Create a Template Specialization method to add two integer values only.If a specialized version is present, the compiler first checks with the specialized version and then the main template.

Write a C++ function named "extractDebugOption" that accepts arguments similar to argc (an integer for the array size) and argv (an array of pointers to C-string). It will determine whether it has the argument of "/debug yes" or "/debug no". It will return true if the debug option is yes. If "/debug no" or there is no debug option or "/debug" without "yes" or "no" followed, it will return false. Note: command line arguments are simply an array of pointers to C-string. Please test it with the following command line arguments These will return true"/debug yes""/compile /debug yes" These will return false"/debug no""/debug""debug""yes /debug""no /debug"arrow_forward
