Write a function that takes a string as its only argument and returns a string composed of the fifth(5th) and next to last character of the incoming argument. Assume the string is long enough so that there is no trouble referencing those pieces of the argument. Also write a main that calls the function and prints out the value returned. The string that is passed to the function could be a hard-coded one or be supplied in response to interactive input. The first two lines of the file that you submit should be ones containing your name and today's date. Your output statement should match the format shown below. If the argument to the function was a string made up of the 26 letters of the alphabet, the output would be: The fifth and next to last characters of abcdefghojklmnopgrstuvwxyz is ey

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.
2. Write a function called word_count() that accepts a string as a parameter and returns an integer value representing the number of words in the string. A word may be separated by a space or tab (“ ", "/t"), assume no other punctuation will be in the string. Write a main() function to demonstrate how it works.
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. Examples Examples of function being called fixer ("THIS is a test?") Example of function output RULES CONFIRMED ERROR: First word is not translate ("this is capitalized a test") ERROR: Missing ending punctuation mark translate ("THIS is ERROR: Missing ending a test") punctuation mark translate ("This is First word is not a test!") capitalized Example of string returned by function RULES CONFIRMED THIS is a test. THIS is a test! THIS is a test!
1- 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". (Test on the following: chair dairy boss circus fly dog church clue dish) chairs dairies bosses circuses flies dogs churches clues dishes Now create the…
In C++, Write a function that receives a string of characters and return true if the string is in language, otherwise it returns false. You may use following function header (Assume a string is in language if it is read from the left side is the same as it is read from the right side. For example, a-b-d-c is not in the language, a-b-c-a-c-b-a is in language): bool isInLanguage_2(string aString) And I also, want to know if my if statement is incorrect, and if it is how is it incorrect?
Write the following three functions A function that accepts a string as an argument and returns a copy of the string with the first character of each sentence capitalized. For instance, if the argument is “hello world”, the function returns “Hello World”. Writing the function requires splitting the sentence, then perform a loop on each word and capitalize the character at location zero- You do not need to do this, However, you do NOT need to do that, Python has a ready string method for that, your job is to find it its easy to use, and saves you plenty of work. It's impossible to know about all Python library functions in a course, but if you look in the Python documentation, you will find what you need. A function that counts the number of occurrences of given character in a given string. For example, calling the function with Count(‘h’, ‘Hi, Im here’) returns 2. Note the function counts the character regardless of case. 3. A main function, allows the user to enter inputs for…
Create a function that takes a string with at least one sentence in it and returns a string with the part(s) after the comma at the beginning of the sentence(s). Examples reverse LegoYoda ("Hit you with my stick, I shall.") ➡ "I shall hit you with my stick." reverse LegoYoda ("Rejected me, my crush has. Ketamine, I need.") "My crush has rejected me. I need ketamine." - reverseLegoYoda ("An alien, I am. Holding me captive in Area 51, the government : → "I am an alien. The government is holding me captive in Area 51."
Write a function that accepts either a pointer to a C-string, or a string object, as its argument. The function should return the character that appears most frequently in the string. Demonstrate the function in a complete program.
Write a function secondIndexOf, taking two strings and determining the second occurrence of the second string in the first string. If the search string does not occur twice, -1 should be returned. Example: secondIndexOf('White Rabbit', 'it') should return 10.
Write a function is_mirror(s) that takes as input a string s and returns True if s is a mirrored string (i.e., a string that could have been produced by your mirror function) and False otherwise. Examples:>>> is_mirror('baconnocab')True>>> print(is_mirror('baconnoca'))False
1. Write a function called removePunct() that takes a string and remove thepunctuations from that string (return a string without punctuation). Test yourfunction by getting some input from the user, print it, then pass it to theremovePunct() and then print the string with no punctuation.Note: You are not allowed to use the built-in function and methods of python (likeremove) This is a sample run of the program:Please enter a string: Hello,m , , world!This is the input: Hello,m , , world!This is after removing puncts: Hellom world 2. Write a function that takes a number and translate it to English. For example thetranslation of 2 is “two”, the translation of 29 is “twenty nine”, the translation of 291is “two hundred ninety one”.
In 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 int
