Question

In visual C#

enter a string: "Mississippi".

Results come out as" there are 11 letters with 4 vowels and 7 consonants".

Create the following methods to complete this application:

Methods

int countLetters(string userInput)

• Create integer variable to store the number of letters
• Use foreach to cycle through each character in the string userInput
  • Check to see if the character is a letter (IsLetter). If it is, count as a letter
• The method will return a numeric value which is the count of letters

int countVowels(string userInput)

• Create integer variable to store the number of vowels
• Use foreach to cycle through each character in the string userInput
  • Use if else if decision structure to check to:
    • If the character is NOT a letter (IsLetter), then you can continue (skip past the else if)
    • Else, if the letter is an upper case letter (IsUpper) then convert it to lower case (ToLower)
  • Use a switch decision structure to increase the variable created to count for the cases: a, e, i, o, u
• The method will return a numeric value which is the count of vowels

int countConsonants(string userInput)

• Call countVowels and store the result in a variable
• Call countLetters and store the result in a variable
• Subtract the number of vowels from the number of letters and store the result in a variable
• The method will return a numeric value which is the count of consonants

Events

btnAnalyze_Click

• Display results in lblResults after calling countLetters, countVowels, and countConsonants

HINTS:

• Tutorial 8-1 p. 477-480 shows an example application that uses methods to determine whether a password has the appropriate characters based on the given criteria.

• Use a "break;" clause to skip a section of an decision statement.

• Reminder: Methods do not go in an event. Place the methods in the form namespace, but not in any event.

        int countConsonants(string userInput)

            letters = countLetters(userInput);  //get Letter count

            consonantsCount = letters - vowels;

            return consonantsCount;
        }

}

take 4 controls on the form with following properties

1. Label, name = lblResults, text= Results:
2. Label, name = label2, text= Enter a string:
3. TextBox, name = txtInput
4. Button, name = btnAnalyze, text= Analyze

Output:
