Hi, This is NOT a difficulty. I am posting my code so that anyone wanting to comment can do so.
Pg 38, Exercise: 1-13 Write a program to print a histogram of the lengths of words in its input. Horizontal bars selected. My solution/code: #include <stdio.h> int main() { #define MAX_LENGTH 10 int word_sizes[MAX_LENGTH]; int i; for (i = 0; i < MAX_LENGTH; ++i) word_sizes[i] = 0; /* fill in the frequencies array, word_sizes */ char c; int ws = 0; while ((c = getchar()) != EOF) { if (c == ' ' || c == '\n' || c == '\t') { if (ws > 0) { if (ws > MAX_LENGTH) { printf("\nMAX_LENGTH execeeded, exiting.\n"); return -1; } ++word_sizes[ws]; } ws = 0; } else ++ws; } /* display the histogram */ int j; for (i = 0; i < MAX_LENGTH; ++i) { printf("%d chars\t", i); for (j = 1; j <= word_sizes[i]; ++j) printf("#"); printf("\n"); } return 0; } Edward _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
