我正在编写一个程序,该程序应该计算段落或字符串的 Flesch 指数,并告诉理解所需的最低教育水平。
应该发生的是一个人输入一个想要计算的字符串,程序应该计算单词的数量并计算句子的数量,以及遍历每个单词并计算其中有多少个音节单词并将其添加到总音节计数器中。计算音节的方法是计算一个单词中相邻元音的个数,例如“Computer”有元音o、u、e等3个音节。但是,如果单词以字母 e 结尾,则从总音节数中减去 1,因此“段落”有 a、a 和 e,但由于 e 在末尾,因此音节数为 2。
这是我到目前为止得到的:
// Import scanner to get input from the user

Scanner input = new Scanner (System.in);
// Declare variables for syllables and words
int totalWords = 0;
int totalSyllables = 0;
// Prompt user for a passage of text
System.out.println ("Please enter some text:");
String passage = input.nextLine();
// Words
for (int i = 0; i < passage.length(); i++)
{
if (passage.charAt(i) == ' ') {
totalWords++;

totalSyllables = totalSyllables + 1;
}

} else {
break;
}
}
}
System.out.println ("There are " + totalSyllables + " syllables.");
input.close();

}
}
double fleschIndex = BASE - WORD_LENGTH_PENALTY * (totalSyllables / totalWords) - SENTENCE_LENGTH_PENALTY * (totalWords / totalSentences);
if (fleschIndex > 100) {
educationLevel = "4th grader";
} else if (fleschIndex <= 100) {
educationLevel = "5th grader";

}
System.out.println ("The Flesch idex is " + fleschIndex + ".");
System.out.println ("The text can be understood by a " + educationLevel + ".");
}
}
我不断收到一些奇怪的错误消息,告诉我在布尔声明周围加上分号,这对我来说毫无意义。
