Question

Write a function, value of (Word), which returns the value of a word of lowercase letters, where the value of the word is the sum of the number of each letter in Word. Use number of (Letter) as a helper function. Sample runs: >>> valueOf ('abe') 8 >>> valueOf ('dial') 26 >>>

Answer 1

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>

using namespace std;

//Function declarations
int valueOf(string word);
int numberOf(char ch);
int main()
{
   //Declaring variables
string word;
  
//Getting the word entered by the user
cout<<"Enter a word :";
cin>>word;
  
//Displaying the value of the word
cout<<"valueOf('"<<word<<"')"<<endl;
  
//calling te function by passsing the word as argument
cout<<valueOf(word);

   return 0;
}

/* Function implementation which finds the value of a character
* Params: character
* return: value of character of type int
*/
int numberOf(char ch)
{
   //Declaring an array of charcaters
   char chararr[]={'a','b','c','d','e','f','g','h','i','j','k','l','m','n','o','p','q','r','s','t','u','v','w','x','y','z'};
  
   //Declaring an array of numbers
   int nosarr[]={1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26};
  
   //this for loop will return the value of the character
   for(int i=0;i<26;i++)
   {
       if(ch==chararr[i])
       {
           return nosarr[i];
       }
   }
}

//Function implentation which calculates the value of the word
int valueOf(string word)
{
   //Declaring variables
   int sum=0;
  
   //Finding the length of the word
   int len=word.length();
  
   //This for loop will calculates the value of the word
for(int i=0;i<len;i++)
{
   //Adding the values of each character
   sum+=numberOf(word[i]);
}
return sum;
  
}
