In-Class C Exercise

In this exercise we are going to build a program that counts the number of spaces in an input string. You will be graded on the functionality of your program. You can work in groups of two in class, and commit your program at the end of class. Neil will grade after class.

Read the C book, section 1.5 for ideas about how to do it.

Compiling your Code

$ gcc proggie.c -o proggie

Example Outputs

$ echo "This is a string" | ./proggie
Number of spaces = 3
