Question

I was given an assignment by my professor to type a program that will count the occurance of the letters in a given phrase. For example -

Input: "The Fox Jumps up on the log"

Output:

t - 2, h - 2, e - 2, f - 1, o - 3, x - 1, j - 1, u - 1, m - 1, p - 2, s - 1, n - 1, l - 1, g -1.

In this case, we are given the text file containing "xyxabcabcdabcdefa" and so the output should be:

x - 2, y - 1, a - 4, b - 3, c - 3, d - 2, e - 1, f - 1

However, I have a problem. We are completing the task using the structure:

In the main, we have to input the text file INTO the structure. The professor has given us a main with a piece missing that we need to fill out in order to complete this task. I have the rest of my code completed but I can't test it unless I complete the missing section in the main. It's probably the most simple thing but I'm somehow stumped. Our main is given as:

I'd appreciate the help!

Explanation / Answer

This is how main () should be

FILE *fptr;

char filename[15];

char ch;

And to count the number of characters it should be like this

i = 0;

   while (ch[i] != '') {

     if (ch[i] >= 'a' && ch[i] <= 'z')

      i++
