Thread: Squeezing a set of string

I guess this code does something different.

You'll probably need to loop over the original string. If the next character is different than the last character copied to the output string, copy it, otherwise don't copy.

Here's my new code:

but I have some problems in replacing a specific text. It only replaces the first character of a string.

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <ctype.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <limits.h>

void word();
void character(FILE *fp);
void line(FILE *fp);

int main(int argc, char*argv[])
{
	FILE *fp;

	if(argc!=2)	/*b/c there is only one file*/
	{
		fprintf(stderr, "&#37;s", argv[0]);
		return 1;
	}
	if((fp = fopen(argv[1], "r+"))==0)
	{
		perror("fopen");
		return 1;
	}
	word(fp);
	fclose(fp);
	return 0;
}

void word(FILE *fp)
{
	int c;
	int space = 1;
	int count = 0;
	while((c=fgetc(fp))!=EOF)
	{
		/*checks the code if there is a space*/
		if(space && !isspace(c)) 
		{
			count++;
			putchar(toupper(c));
		}
		/*If the conditions are not met, then it will add a character*/
		else
			putchar(c);
		/*If there is no space, it will return true*/
		if(isspace(c))
			space = 1;
		/*If there is space, it will return false*/
		else
			space = 0;
	}
	printf("\nTotal Number: %d\t", count);
}
