我需要一些帮助来了解该countWords
函数在下面的程序中是如何工作的。
这一切都在 Stephen Kochan 写的“Programming in C”中进行了解释,但是当涉及到函数中的“lookingForWord”和“++wordCount”时,我不明白它是如何工作的countWords
!
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdbool.h>
//function to determine if a character is alphabetic
bool alphabetic (const char c)
{
if ( (c >= 'a' && c <= 'z') || ( c >= 'A' && c <= 'Z'))
return true;
else
return false;
}
// function to count the number of words in a string
int countWords ( const char string[])
{
int i, wordCount = 0;
bool lookingForWord = true, alphabetic ( const char c);
for ( i = 0; string[i] != '\0'; ++i)
if (alphabetic(string[i]) )
{
if ( lookingForWord )
{
++wordCount;
lookingForWord = false;
}
}
else
lookingForWord = true;
return wordCount;
}
int main ( void)
{
const char text1[] = {"Well, here goes."};
const char text2[] = { "And here we go... again"};
int countWords (const char string[]);
printf( " %s - words = %i\n", text1, countWords (text1));
printf( " %s - words = %i\n", text2, countWords (text2));
return 0;
}
