Question
ATTENTION!!!: This assignment is for a basic and introductory C++ course. As such, please do not use complex or obscure opperations and headers that would typically be used in advanced classes as we have not learned them yet. Use only very simple functions and headers. If you are unsure of whether a technique is too advanced, dont use it. If you can answer the question without using a function, please do so.
"C type" string is implied to mean an array of characters with an end of string mark following the last character.
Write a function with three arguments (the first two arguments are “C type” strings). The function will return a Boolean, true if the two strings are identical using a case sensitive comparison, false otherwise. The third argument is a reference to a boolen which is set to true if the two strings are the same using a case insensitive comparison, false otherwise.
Explanation / Answer
#include <iostream>
#include <cstring>
using namespace std;
bool getCompareResult(char a[], char b[], bool flag){
int i = 0;
if(strlen(a) != strlen(b)) {
return false;
}
while(a[i]!=''){
if(flag) {
if(toupper(a[i]) != toupper(b[i])) {
return false;
}
}
else{
if(a[i] != b[i]) {
return false;
}
}
i++;
}
return true;
}
int main()
{
char a[] = "abcbdebdcbsbabc";
char b[] = "aBcbdebdcbsbabc";
cout<<getCompareResult(a,b,false)<<endl;;
cout<<getCompareResult(a,b,true)<<endl;;
return 0;
}
Output:
sh-4.2$ g++ -std=c++11 -o main *.cpp
sh-4.2$ main
