Vowel Scan Method! Error, need some help here?
Q. I am trying to write a method that scans the first vowel that occurs on a string, but when I tried this method using the string "what" it does not returns 2 instead of another number. What should I do to fix this? private int vowLocation (String s) { int x = 0; String vowel = "aiueo"; boolean found = false; char st = ' '; for (int i = 0; i <= s.length()-1 && found; i++ ) { if (vowel.indexOf(s.charAt(i )) != -1) { st = s.charAt(i); found = true; } } x = s.indexOf(st); return x; }
Asked by equinoz - Sun Oct 29 19:39:00 2006 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. change '&& found" in your loop condition to "&& !found". The way you have it, it doesn't go into the loop at all. Or better yet, get rid of the "found" stuff alltogether, and replace the insides of your "if" statement with just {return i;} There is no need to scan the whole string to the end, and than again from the start, since you already know the index you need to return the moment you found that first vowel. A little more elegant approach would be to use a regular expression. For example: return Pattern.compile("[aiueo]" ). matcher(s).start();

Q. I have to write a program that will allow the user to input as many lines as they want until they enter quit. The output has to say the number of lines input, the number of words, characters in the words, occurence of each vowel, average word length and average vowels per word. I am not asking fo the entire code, so anyone who says to do my own homework can go *** themselves because I am just asking for the lines of code that will do these things, and I will put it together and try to make sense of it. i know that something.length() will give the number of characters input for one line, but how do i get this to not include spaces or commas, and do so for numerous lines of input?

A. Well if I were going to write this program, I'd use the Scanner class. Go look that up on google, because it's pretty useful. So getting a whole line would be like in.nextLine(), where in is a scanner object. From there you should be able to figure out the rest. For instance, you could put the code in a while loop, testing the input to make sure it doesn't equal "quit". And lines++ while it doesn't (basically counting each line). You're going to need some basic string functions. Stuff like isDigit(), isLetter(), etc will help split the punctuation from the actual values. After that you can scan through individual lines and pick off stuff like vowels, etc. You could use a tokenizer to get individual words in a line, and get length… [cont.]

How can one develop an ear for Latin poetry?
Q. Latin poetry is based on the length of the vowel and not the stress of the syllable. As a native english speaker, I don't have an ear for that. I read Latin aloud (mostly to myself) to try to get a sense of the sound, but it seems inefficient, especially since I've learned all I know so far by independent study, and don't really know anyone else who could speak it (let alone well enough to help me develop an appreciation for the language as it was spoken). Could i use a metronome? Is there a collection of good audio clips some where? Should I just keep practicing? Any methods anyone knows? A good latin resource on prosody?

A. Since you are getting a garbage value for the first letter, I would check what it saved in the 2 names. If the values are the correct values, then check what is the various letters. Something like this would do: cout << player[N].name1 << endl; cout << player[N],name2 << endl; for (i=0;i<20; i++){ cout << player[N].name1[i] << endl; cout << player[N].name2[i] << endl; if(player[N].name1[i]!='\ 0'){ if(player[N].name1[i]!=pl ayer[N].na { player[N].valid=0; break; } } The if all the letters and the whole names are correct, you need to change your code so you can check if the letters are vowels or not. So, you could do something like this: if(player[N].name1[i]!=pl ayer[N].na { if (player[N].name1[i] == 'a' || player[N].name1[i] ==… [cont.]

A. Your methodology is pretty good. Here's how I would attack the problem: Computer selects a phrase. Tells user ***. User guesses letter. Certain *'s are replaced by that letter. User guesses more letters. More *'s are replaced. User guesses phrase. Computer says correct or not. To guess a letter, the user can type l and then the letter. To guess the phrase, the user can type p and then the guess.
