Counting The upper case

[jman2011]

Here is what i got. I need to count the Uppercase entered in a string. Can someone help me?

Enter string: The Brown Fox
#of Upper Case: 3

My Progress:

#include
#include
usingnamespace std;
int main()
{
char string[15];
cout<<"Enter string: ";
cin.getline(string,15);
.
.
.
.
}
I need the next solution thanks!

Here is a hint: it involves #include <cctype> (or #include <locale> ) and std::isupper .

No condition

if(isupper(c)) something

int j=0;
for(int i=0;i<26;++i)
if(isupper(string[i])==1)
j+=1;

try this it works

#include<iostream.h>
#include<conio.h>
#include<string.h>
class string
{
char *str;
public:
      void input()
      {
       cout<<"\nenter the string"<<endl;
       cin>>str;
       }
      void display()
      {
       cout<<"\n"<<str;
      }
      int friend upper(string);
};
int upper(string a)
{
int j=0;

while((*a.str)!='\0')
  {
   if((*a.str)>=65&&(*a.str)<91)
   {
   j++;
   (a.str)++;
   }
   else
   (a.str)++;
   }
  return(j);
 }



int main()
{
clrscr();
int n;
 string b;
 b.input();
 b.display();
n=upper(b);
cout<<"no of upper case letters are::"<<n;
getch();
return(0);
}

Yeah... but just using the code i gave above is a substitute for all of it..
Isupper resides in the standard library with the same procedure u mentioned here.. Why write the whole code, when there already exists a direct function for it ??

Since we appear to be giving away code these days, you can do this in a single line using std::count_if :

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <algorithm>
#include <cctype>

int main()
{
    /* Read the target sentence into a std::string */
    std::string sentence;
    std::cout << "Enter a sentence:" << std::endl;
    getline( std::cin, sentence );

    /* Here's the actual call that counts the number of upper case letters */
    size_t iUpperCount = std::count_if( sentence.begin(), sentence.end(), isupper );

    /* Output the result */
    std::cout << "There are " << iUpperCount << " uppercase letters" << std::endl;

    return 0;
}

You're potentially not expected to know about the standard algorithms in whatever course this task is for, but it's always good to know that they're there :)

@aditya u are right my friend

Yeah... and by just using the built in functions, what do you learn? How to use a built in function. What if your next language doesn't have that built in function? You can't program the task...
