Chapter 2.8, Problem 25CP
Explanation of Solution
“+” operator:
“+” symbol is a mathematical operator; normally it is used to add two numbers.
- • In Python, “+” operator is used to concatenate two strings. This means it appends one string to other string.
- • This can be useful for separating a string literal, so a lengthy call to “print” function can span multiple lines.
Example:
Consider the example of “print” function using “+ ...

I want to go to the capitals of each of the countries since they say they're usually the best.
Can you help me find where the capital is?
Instructions:
Ask the user for a string input
From the string inputted, find the index of the capital letter.
For this problem, it is guaranteed that there is only 1 capital letter in the inputted string.
Hint: Use the isupper(char) function from the cctype library to check if a letter is capital or not.

If discriminant is less than 0, the roots are complex and different.arrow_forwardCode in C++ Language STRING FLIP ALPHABET One of the simplest cryptography technique is to invert the characters such that the first character of the alphabet will be replaced to the last character, the second character be replaced to the second to the last, and so on. So all A's are turned into Z's, B to Y, C to X, and so on until X to C, Y to B, and Z to A. In a similar fashion, numeric characters will also be inverted such that 0 will become 9, 1 to 8, 2 to 7 and so on until 7 to 2, 8 to 1, and 9 to 0. Given a string composed of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and spaces, your task is to invert them. You also must keep the case of the letters as is.
