This time I made a program that looks for a word in a text file and counts how many times does this word appears in the file. I found this program very similar to the last one I did for the WSQ 9 because it involved working with text documents in C++ too.

I first made the program just looking for the word banana when it was written just like that and then i realized that I need to adjust the program for looking also for banana when it is writed in a different way like BanaNa o BANaNa so I looked for information and I found the function that convert the file to lowercase and after that I made the count.

For the final project I’m going to work with Rodrigo Valdez and we plan to do an arduino project, we have looked for ideas in different web pages and based on our experience and we decide that we are going to do a proximity sensor, for this project we need an arduino, a protoboard, the sensor and an output device that we are still thinking about between our options, the possibilities are LEDs that turn on at different speeds depending on the proximity or use a display to show how far the object is from the sensor.

This program calculates the square root of a number with the babylonian method, what this does is finding the result by approximation.

I obtained the formula of Babylonian method from: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methods_of_computing_square_roots

Here is my code and program working:

This program is able to open a file and count how many lines a how many characters exist in that file, to make this work the first thing is open a file which is done in this part:

datafile.open(filename);
while(getline(datafile,linea)){
lnstep++;
charCount += linea.length();
}

also that part is in charge of counting the characters and lines. Basically there is where everything happens and the other part of the code is for ask the input of file name, closing the file, printing, etc.

Hope this is useful for you.
