Description

The word bank system maintains all words in a text file named words.txt. Each line in the text file stores a word while all words are kept in an ascending order. You may assume that the word length is less than 20.

The system should support the following three functions:

• Word lookup: to check whether a given word exists in the word bank.
• Word insertion: to insert a new word into the word bank. No insertion should be made if the word already appears in the word bank.
• Word deletion: to delete a word from the word bank.

Please also make sure that

• After insertion, the order of words in the text file should be kept in ascending order.
• After deletion, there should not be any empty lines in the text file.
• After deleting the last word from the system, the system should still keep an empty words.txt.

Implementation

• Start your coding with the skeleton code and create a text file words.txt next to the C++ file.
• You don't need to change the function headers.
• Complete three core functions lookup, insert_word and delete_word.

Expected Output

Below is a sample run of the program. Assume that the file words.txt is empty initially.

1 for lookup; 2 for insertion; 3 for deletion; q for quit: 2
Please enter the word you want to insert: cat
The word "cat" is inserted successfully!

1 for lookup; 2 for insertion; 3 for deletion; q for quit: 2
Please enter the word you want to insert: apple
The word "apple" is inserted successfully!

1 for lookup; 2 for insertion; 3 for deletion; q for quit: 2
Please enter the word you want to insert: dog
The word "dog" is inserted successfully!

1 for lookup; 2 for insertion; 3 for deletion; q for quit: 1
Please enter the word you want to search for: car
The word "car" is not found!

1 for lookup; 2 for insertion; 3 for deletion; q for quit: 1
Please enter the word you want to search for: cat
The word "cat" is found!

1 for lookup; 2 for insertion; 3 for deletion; q for quit: 2
Please enter the word you want to insert: cat
The word "cat" already exists!

1 for lookup; 2 for insertion; 3 for deletion; q for quit: 3
Please enter the word you want to delete: cat
The word "cat" is deleted successfully!

1 for lookup; 2 for insertion; 3 for deletion; q for quit: 3
Please enter the word you want to delete: car
The word "car" is not in the file!
        

Then, below is the expected content of the text file words.txt.

apple
dog
        

Hints

For word insertion and deletion tasks, creating a temporary file may simplify lots of work. This approach is particularly useful if the word bank is large such that you cannot read the whole word bank into memory. For the lab tasks, there are two useful functions for file operation that you may use:

• rename for renaming a file
• remove for deleting a file

In addition, we read and manipulate words through char array. The following two functions could be helpful:

• strcmp for comparing two strings
• strcpy for copying a string from one char array to another
