Question

Retrieve Hamlet from the Gutenberg project and save it as a plain text file: The file consists of a large number of lines. Write a C++ program making use of dynamic memory and pointers to find out how many of these lines contain an even number of letters and how many an odd number of letters regardless of their case. Only consider letters, so skip counting punctuation marks, numbers, spaces, etc. For example, the line: Claudius King of Denmarke. has 22 letters, which is an even number, so it should add one to the count of even lines. Print the calculated number of even and odd counts after processing the whole file.

Explanation / Answer

Here is your desired code

provide file Name (path/fileName) to the Variable "FilePath" and enjoy..!

#include<iostream>
#include<fstream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
  
   //here in file path provide your file path
   char filePath[]="file.txt";
  
   ofstream outStream;
   outStream.open(filePath,ios::app);
   outStream<<endl;
   outStream.close();

   ifstream inStream;
   inStream.open(filePath);

   int charCount=0;
   int evenCount=0;
   int oddCount=0;

   char c; //character to check
  
   while(inStream.get(c))
   {
       if((c>='A' && c<='Z') || (c>='a' && c<='z'))
       {
          
           charCount++;
       }
       if(c==' ' && charCount!=0)
       {
          
           if(charCount%2==0)
           {
               evenCount++;
           }
           else
           {
                   oddCount++;
           }
           charCount=0;
       }
   }

   cout<<"Lines with even number of characters: "<<evenCount;
   cout<<" Lines with odd number of characters: "<<oddCount;
  
   inStream.close();
   return 0;
}
