Need a little help please. ^_^; I have to make a program that has the user input words and when they are finished the screen is cleared and 3 columns are shown. The first column has the user's original words, the second column has all the vowels in each word entered and the last column has all the consonants of each word entered. So far I am able to get the user's input an store it into an array and display all the words but I don't know how to check through the words and find out which ones are vowels and which are consonants. The outcome of the columns would look something like this (aside from the " - "): Quote: Original word------------Vowels--------------Consonants +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ was-----------------------a---------------------ws him -----------------------i---------------------hm together------------------oee------------------tgthr cradle---------------------ae-------------------crdl monitor-------------------oio-------------------mntr toe------------------------oe--------------------t |
