Answer to Question #87339 in C++ for iss

Question

Declare a string array of size 5. Prompt the user to enter five strings that are stored in the array. Afterward, prompt the user to enter a character. Write a function that expects the following three parameters: an array, the size of the array, and a char. The function counts the number of occurrences of that chain all of the strings stored in the array and returns it. Call that function from the main and output the returned value.

Answer 1

#include <iostream>
#include <cstring>

using namespace std;

int checker(string [], int, char);

int main() {
string arr[5];
	for(int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
		cout << "Please, enter " << i + 1 << "string: ";
		getline(cin, arr[i]);
	}
char ch;
	cout << "Enter symbol: ";
	cin >> ch;
	cout << "Quantity of symbol " << ch << " is " << checker(arr, 5, ch);
return 0;
}

int checker(string str[], int a, char ch) {
int number = 0;	
	for (int i = 0; i < a; i++) {
	    int len  = str[i].length();
		for (int j = 0; j < len; j++) {
			if (str[i][j] == ch)
				number++;
		}
	}
return number;
}
