Program Plan Intro

Tokenizing Strings:

  • The tokenizing of a string denotes a process of breaking a string down into its components termed as tokens.
  • The “split” method of “String” class could be used to tokenize strings.
  • The character that separates tokens is termed as “delimiter”.
  • The argument passed to “split” method denotes a regular expression.
  • A regular expression is used to search for patterns in strings, files and other texts.
  • To prevent leading or trailing whitespace characters in tokens, the string is been trimmed.
  • The “trim” method of “String” class is been used for trimming purposes.

Given Code:

String str = “one two three four”;

String[] tokens = str.split(“ ”);

int x = tokens.length;

String first = tokens[0];

Explanation:

  • The given code stores a string into variable “str”.
  • The string is been split into tokens using “split” method.
  • The count of tokens could be computed using “length” method.
  • The first token in array is been stored into variable “first”.

def swap_text(text): Backstory: Luffy wants to organize a surprise party for his friend Zoro and he wants to send a message to his friends, but he wants to encrypt the message so that Zoro cannot easily read it. The message is encrypted by exchanging pairs of characters. Description: This function gets a text (string) and creates a new text by swapping each pair of characters, and returns a string with the modified text. For example, suppose the text has 6 characters, then it swaps the first with the second, the third with the fourth and the fifth with the sixth character. Parameters: text is a string (its length could be 0)Return value: A string that is generated by swapping pairs of characters. Note that if the Examples: swap_text ("hello") swap_text ("Party for Zoro!") swap_text ("") def which_day(numbers): → 'ehllo'→ 'aPtr yof roZor!' → '' length of the text is odd, the last character remains in the same position.
char lastChar(const char *str){    char last;    //loop over the string and go uptill end of the string \0    while(*str !='\0'){        str++; // increment pointer        last = *str;  //store the current character to the last variable    }        return last; //last character is returned}
