Chapter 8, Problem 15PP
Write a function that determines if two strings are anagrams. The function should not be case sensitive and should disregard any punctuation or spaces. Two strings are anagrams if the letters can be rearranged to form each other. For example, “Eleven plus two” is an anagram of “Twelve plus one.” Each string contains one “v”, three “e’s”, two “l’s”, etc. Test your function with several strings that are anagrams and non-anagrams. You may use either the string class or a C-style string.

Write a function that prompts the user to input a sentence. Then checks the sentence to make sure the
following rules have been followed:
• the entire first word of the sentence should be capitalized
• the sentence ends with a punctuation mark (any)
If the sentence meets these requirements, print and return the string RULES CONFIRMED (exactly as
shown).
If the sentence does NOT meet the requirements, the function should fix the sentence such that it will
pass the rules, print the type of error(s) and then return the fixed sentence.

4. Complete the function show_upper. This function takes one parameter - a string (s). It should return a string made up of all the upper-case characters in s. For example, if s is “aBdDEfgHijK” then show_upper should return “BDEHK”. It should return the upper-case string - not print it. Do not change anything outside show_upper.
Create a function that determines whether a string
is a valid hex code.
A hex code must begin with a pound key # and is
exactly 6 characters in length. Each character must
be a digit from 0-9 or an alphabetic character from
A-F. All alphabetic characters may be uppercase or
lowercase.
Examples
isValidHexCode ("#CD5C5C") → true
isValidHexCode("#EAECEE") → true
isValidHexCode ("#eaecee") → true
isValid HexCode ("#CD5C58C") → false
// Length exceeds 6

- Q5. Write a function called findString to determine if one character string exists inside another string. The first argument to the function should be the character string that is to be searched and the second argument is the string you are interested in finding. If the function finds the specified string, have it return the location in the source string where the string was found. If the function does not find the string, have it return -1. For example: For function, findString ("a chatterbox", "hat") It searches the string "a chatterbox" for the string "hat". Because "hat" does exist inside the source string, the function returns Location= 3 to indicate the starting position inside the source string where "hat" was found. Programming Language :- C Note: You are not allowed to use inbuilt string library functionarrow_forward1. Complete the function char_cycle. This function takes two parameters - a string (s) and an integer (n). char_cycle should print the first character from s; after that, it should print every nth character. For example, if the string is "abcdefghijklmn" and the integer is 3, char_cycle should print "adgjm". Use a loop - do not use string slicing. Do not change anything outside char_cycle.

- You may assume that both of the input strings are 5 letters and all lowercase. Problem D. Durdle Game Using the function from the previous problem, write a function durdle_game(target) which takes in as an argument a single string that will be the target to guess, and lets the user attempt to guess the target word. Each time the user makes a guess, the function will print out the result of the previous function to tell the user how close they are. If the user guesses correctly, then the game is over. Have the function return the number of guesses that it took the user to get the correct answer.arrow_forwardin c programing with User-Defined Functions Remove all non-alphabetic characters Write a program that removes all non-alphabetic characters from the given input. Assume the input string will not exceed 50 characters. Ex: If the input is: -Hello, 1 world$! the output is: Helloworld The program must define and call a function named RemoveNonAlpha that takes two strings as parameters: userString and userStringAlphaOnly. userString is the user specified string from the program input. Function RemoveNonAlpha() then assigns userStringAlphaOnly with the user specified string without any non-alphabetic characters.void RemoveNonAlpha(char userString[], char userStringAlphaOnly[])arrow_forward4 Write a program that prompts the user to input a string. The program then use the function substr to remove all the vowels from the string. For example if str = "There", then after removing all the vowels, str = "Thr". After removing all the vowels, output the string. Your program must contain a function to remove all the vowels and a function to determine whether a character is a vowel.arrow_forward
- For each function, describe what it actually does when called with a string argument. If it does not correctly check for lowercase letters, give an example argument that produces incorrect results, and describe why the result is incorrect. # 1 def any_lowercase1(s): for c in s: if c.islower(): return True else: return False # 2 def any_lowercase2(s): for c in s: if 'c'.islower(): return 'True' else: return 'False' # 3 def any_lowercase3(s): for c in s: flag = c.islower() return flag # 4 def any_lowercase4(s): flag = False for c in s: flag = flag or c.islower() return flag # 5 def any_lowercase5(s): for c in s: if not c.islower(): return False return True The code and its output must be explained technically whenever asked. The explanation can be provided before or after the code, or in the form of code comments within…arrow_forwardIn C language, Write a function that gets a string containing a positive integer. The function subtracts 1 fromthat integer and puts the obtained value in the string. void str_subtract_one(char* num); For example:- if before we call str_subtract_one(str) we have str==“1997”, then after return str will be “1996”.- if before we call str_subtract_one(str) we have str==“12345678987650”, then after return str will be “12345678987649”.- if before we call str_subtract_one(str) we have str==“100”, then after return str will be “99”. 1. You may assume that the input is always legal, i.e., the string is a positive integer correctly formatted.2. Note that the numbers may be larger than the maximum of int or long. That is, you should not try to convert string to intarrow_forward1- Write a function that takes a word less than 25 characters long and returns the letter that word starts with (in capital letters). Frank starts with the letter F. 2- Write a function that has a string as formal parameter. The function then replaces all spaces and punctuation marks in the string with the asterisk (*). Here is a sample run: Nothing is impossible, the word itself says 'I'm possible'! Nothing*is*impossible**the*word*itself*says**I*m*possible** 3- Write a function that takes as input one line and reverses the words of the line. For example, birds and bees Reversed: bees and birds 4- Write a function that takes nouns (a string) as inputs and forms their plurals based on these rules: a. If noun ends in "y", remove the "y" and add "ies". b. If noun ends in "s","ch", or "sh", add "es". c. In all other cases, just add "s".

- Instructions Write a program that uses the function is Palindrome given in Example 6-6 (Palindrome). Test your program on the following strings: madam, abba, 22, 67876, 444244, trymeuemyrt Modify the function isPalindrome of Example 6-6 so that when determining whether a string is a palindrome, cases are ignored, that is, uppercase and lowercase letters are considered the same. The isPalindrome function from Example 6-6 has been included below for your convenience. bool isPalindrome (string str) { int length = str.length(); for (int i = 0; i < length / 2; i++) { if (str[i] != str[length - 1 - i]) { return false; } // if } // for loop return true; }// isPalindrome Your program should print a message indicating if a string is a palindrome: madam is a palindromearrow_forwarduse c code to Develop a function that gets two same length strings as parameters and reports the number of characters that they have different. For example, if the two strings are Str1: “Hello world! Happy Friday”Str2: “Hello Johny! happy friday” The function should return: Your strings are different in 7 places However, if the strings are exactly equal, it should just say Your strings are the same If the strings are not of the same length, the code should just say: The two strings are not of the same length! Hint: 1.compare the two strings character by character and report the differences 2.answer must have and show the outputarrow_forwardWrite a isPalindrome Function Write a function isPalindrome($str) that returns true if the parameter string is a palindrome (a palindrome is a word or sentence that reads the same forward and backward at the character level). You should ignore non-letter characters when determining if the string is a palindrome. Thus, isPalindrome("A man, a plan, a canal, Panama!") should return true.arrow_forward
