Need a fix to word counting

Code:

---

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

#define STRINGSIZE 100

/*Prototypes*/

void getString(char *string);
void lowToUpper(char lowerData[]); //convert the string to uppercase
void upToLower(char upperData[]); //convert the string to lowercase
int numGraph(char *string); //counts # of characters
int CountWords(char *string); //counts # of words

/*Main program input*/
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
 
  char string[STRINGSIZE];
  int lowerData, upperData;
  int count=0;
  int num=0;

  getString(string);
  printf("Entered string = %s", string);

  count = numGraph(string);
  printf("Number of characters in string = %d\n", count);
 
  num = CountWords(string);
 
  system("PAUSE");       
  return 0;
}


/*void codes*/

void lowToUpper(char lowerData[])
    {

    }
   
void upToLower(char upperData[])
    {

    }
int numGraph(char *string)
{
        int i, count = 0;
        for (i = 0; string[i] != '\0';i++)
        {
                if (isgraph((int)string[i])) count++;
        }
        return count;
}

int CountWords(char *string)
{
    char c;
    int num = 0;
    int flag = 0;
    while((c=getchar())!='\n')
    {
                              if((c==' ')||(c==' ')||(c=='.')||(c==';')||(c==',')||(c==';')
                              ||(c==':')||(c=='"')||(c=='?')||(c=='!')||(c=='-'))
    {
              flag=0 ;
              }
              else if(flag==0)
              {
                  num++;
                  flag=1;
              }
    }

printf("Number of words in string = %d\n",num);
}

void getString(char *string)
{
  printf("Enter A String: ");
  fgets(string, STRINGSIZE, stdin);
}

whats wrong with my int CountWords(char *string)? The program has no error when complied, but it does not display word count

I don't know, what's wrong with it?

You tell me. What's it doing that it's not supposed to? People generally don't just like to read through pages of code with no idea what the program is doing. Sure, some people like compiling random code just to see what it does, and there are even some people that have nothing better to do than to read every line of code every random person on the internet asks them to read, but most people have better things to do. You should learn how to ask questions the smart way.

essentially, it should read how many words are in the string and tell you, but its not coming up when runned

Are you entering a string when prompted?

Quzah.

yes, but no return on word count

Code:

---

    while((c=getchar())!='\n')

---

Are you typing in words there? Because you are asking for input from the keyboard.


Quzah.

got it to work

Code:

---

int countWords(char *string)
{
    int i, count = 0;
    for ( i = 0; string[i]; ++i )
    {
        if (isspace(string[i])) ++count;
    }
    return count;
}

So "hello world" gives you three words? right?
Is it what you want? or your definition of word?
