Data Structures

Fall Semester 1997

Due by 8:00 AM, Wednesday, September 17

Your Task

Write a main program that uses Roberge's String class (Laboratory 3). Your program should:

• read in up to 10 words from the standard input
• print out the acronym formed from the first initial of each word
• print a list of all the words containing a character specified by the user
• print the first word in the list that contains a capital letter
• display the average word length

The code for String is available from the C++ Code page. Note that this class does not provide a means for reading or writing Strings directly, so you will have to read C++ strings and use the conversion constructor provided.

Once your program is done, generate a test plan for your program and carry it out. Make corrections to your program as indicated by testing.

Deliverables

Your source file must begin with a header block that includes the name of the file, your name as author, and the creation and modification history of the file. You may use this file as a template. You will also want to follow the standards set forth in the course style sheet.

Submit to your instructor, by the due time and date, the following:

• an e-mail message whose body is a compilable C++ file containing only your driver program.

• a hard copy of your test plan with execution results recorded.
