Directions

  

Directions:

Write C++ programs that use proper style and documentation

The purpose of this assignment is to assess if you can create a program that uses strings.

The file must be called stringProg.cpp

Main Method 

1. Declare a string called myString.
2. Use Call-by-reference pass your string to a method called inputData(); (Hint: uses the &)
3. Use Call-by-value and pass your string to a method called outputData(); (Hint: does not use the &)

inputData Method (Receives string) 

  1. Get input using cin >> into the string variable you received into      this method. (I will be entering my full name in the format of: Last, First Middle
  2. Using the string methods mentioned in this weeks lecture, have your program change the      string to: First Middle      Initial Last
  3. I would like you to break the string you      received apart into 3 separate variables: first, last, middle. (Hint: use find() to find the “,” and spaces and      use substr() to extract the pieces) 
  4. Use string concatenation to reassemble the      string and overwrite the string you received with the new value. 
  5. You must use each of the following string      methods (at least once): substr(), length(), find(), insert(), erase()
  6. Notice the “,”      is missing out of the name.

outputData Method (Receives string) 

  1. Output the new string to the screen using      cout <<. 
  2. Comments are required, but pseudocode or flowchart are not. 
  3. All Input/Output should be done using the      standard C++ library string class
  4. Include: system(“PAUSE”); after      your output to pause the screen.

Provide documentation throughout the program. Ensure you include ALL files required to make your program compile and run. I would like to see your .cpp file and the .exe file that is inside your debug directory.
