Expert Solution & Answer
Chapter 12, Problem 1MC
Program Description Answer
Display str[0]:
The above statement is used to display the first character of the string “str”.
Hence, the correct answer is option “B”.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
Character by character text processing:
- Strings can be accessed or manipulated by using an individual text that is present.
- Different
programming language access the string individually in a different way, some prefer the string gets accessed through subscript notation. - String is considered as list of characters.
Accessing string using subscript notation:
- The string that are accessed using the subscript notation uses subscript “0” to hold the first character and similarly till the last character.
- The first value the index value will be “0” and to find the last character use “length(variable)-1”.
Example:
//declare and define a string
Declare String txt = "Hai"
Explanation:
In the above declaration, the given string gets processed in the following way:
txt[0] will hold “H”.
txt[1] will hold “a”.
txt[2] will hold “i”.
Explanation for the incorrect answer:
Display str[1]:
The above statement is used to display the second character of the “str” string.
Hence, the option “A” is wrong.
Display str[first]:
The above statement is used to display the character present at the value of “first” , ”,(that is the value that variable last holds ) of the “str” string.
Hence, the option “C” is wrong.
Display str:
The above statement is used to display the entire content of the string “str”.
Hence, the option “D” is wrong.

and returns the number of characters in the
string,

Using a for Loop
Summary
In this lab the completed program should print the numbers O
through 10, along with their values multiplied by 2 and by 10. You
should accomplish this using a for loop instead of a counter-
controlled while loop.
Instructions
1. Write a for loop that uses the loop control variable to take
on the values O through 10.
2. In the body of the loop, multiply the value of the loop control
variable by 2 and by 10.
3. Execute the program by clicking the Run button at the bottom
of the screen. Is the output the same?

Keep a running total of the amounts sold by each salesperson.

- C++ Programming Instructions Write a program that prompts the user for a sequence of characters (all typed on a single line) and counts the number of vowels ('a', 'e', 'i', 'o', 'u'), consonants, and any other characters that appear in the input. The user terminates input by typing either the period (.) or exclamation mark character (!) followed by the Enter key on your keyboard. Your program will not count white space characters.I.e., you will ignore white space characters.Though, the cin statement will skip white space characters in the input for you. Your program will not be case-sensitive. Thus, the characters 'a' and 'A' are both vowels and the characters 'b' and 'B' are both consonants. For example, the input How? 1, 2, 3. contains one vowel, two consonants, and six other kinds of characters. IMPORTANT: Your program must use the while statement only when looping. I.e., do not use a for statement or any other looping statement. Test 1 > run Enter text: .
