Character Converter Class

From what I found online, I see how and why what was done. I just need to know the function codes.

Alright alright, here are teh c0dez

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

using namespace std;

class leetspeak {
	public: string eleet(string s);
};

string leetspeak::eleet(string s) {
	for (int i = 0; i < s.length(); i++) {
		char x = s.at(i);
		switch (x) {
			case 'a':
				s.replace(i, 1, "4");
				break;

			case 'e':
				s.replace(i, 1, "3");
				break;

			case 'i':
				s.replace(i, 1, "1");
				break;

			case 'o':
				s.replace(i, 1, "0");
				break;

			case 'h':
				s.replace(i, 1, "]-[");
				break;
			case 't':
				s.replace(i, 1, "7");
				break;
		}
	}
	return s;
}

int main() {
	leetspeak myleetspeak;

	string test = "i am the elite";

	test = myleetspeak.eleet(test);
	cout << test << endl;

	return 0;
}

What is that?

[swp147]

those are teh secret c0dez!!

[lordzedd]

lol. it says 1 4m 7]-[3l173 when I run it lol

[lordzedd]

Please any help on this?

[lordzedd]

I know that I have to convert what the user puts in to all uppercase if the letter is lowercase. I think I know how to do that. The part that I don't know is 1. How to start the code and 2. The properword function that uppercases the first word after each space. I don't the that function.

[lordzedd]

OK....I looked it up in my book and found some stuff on the web and here's what I have so far:

//Chris Cochran
//COP2000.0M2
//Project 7
//This program will uppercase words and sentences

#include <iostream>
#include <cctype>
#include <string>
using namespace std;


class CharConverter
	{
	private:
		string sentence;
		int count;
	public:
		void uppercase(string sentence)
		{
			
			for (int count = 0; count < sentence.length(); count ++)
			{
			sentence[count] = toupper(sentence[count]);
			cout << sentence;
			return;
			}
		}
		void properWords(string sentence)
		{
			
			for (int count = 0; count < sentence.length(); count++)
			{
				sentence[count] = toupper(sentence[count]);
				if (sentence[count] = ' ') 
				{
					count++; 
					sentence[count] = toupper(sentence[count]);
				}
			}
		}

};

int main()
{

	CharConverter mainSentence;
	string choice;
	string sentence;
	
	cout << "Type a word or sentence.\n";
	cin >> sentence;

	mainSentence.uppercase(sentence);
	mainSentence.properWords(sentence);
	
	return 0;
}

It compiles and runs fine, but when I type in a word or sentence, it gives me this error:

Is that something to do with something in int main()?

Not sure if this is what caused your error, but look at line 21, where you increment count. Also, when I tried your code it only took the first word of what I typed. I think you might need to use another function other than cin. I'm not sure which one it is in C++, but I've been seeing alot of getline(cin, variable) around.

Is it supposed to turn "hello my username is swp147. your name is lordZedd." into "Hello my username is swp147. Your name is lordZedd" ?

[lordzedd]

what's wrong with it?

[swp147]

How do you increment the variable differently in the next loop? Nevermind, I didn't know you could throw a space in there.

[lordzedd]

If you input hello my name is blah, it's supposed to output HELLO MY NAME IS BLAH and then output Hello My Name Is Blah

[swp147]

Why do you jump out of the loop at line 25 then?

[lordzedd]

I deleted the return. but i put it because it was the end of that loop.

[swp147]

return will take you out of the function.

[lordzedd]

oh ok. I deleted it. So how do I make my code do what i need it to do? xD

[swp147]

Did you fix the sentence input?

[lordzedd]

ya. i just put cin >> sentence;

[lordzedd]

void uppercase(string sentence)
{
cout << "Type a sentence to see every letter be uppercased\n";
cin >> sentence;
for (int count = 0; count < sentence.length(); count ++)
{
sentence[count] = toupper(sentence[count]);
cout << sentence;
}
}
void properWords(string sentence)
{
cout << "Type a sentence to see the first letter of every word be uppercased\n";
cin >> sentence;
for (int count = 0; count < sentence.length(); count++)
{
sentence[count] = toupper(sentence[count]);
if (sentence[count] = ' ')
{
count++;
sentence[count] = toupper(sentence[count]);
}
}
}

[swp147]

not in there, in main(). For some reason cin >> sentence; only gets one word. I think you have to use getline()
