/* Old style texting, challenge by Rik Wittkopp Back in the days when mobile phones had only just evolved from two cans and a piece of sting, texting started to evolve. It was an expensive and time consuming operation involving much button pushing, and you were limited to a small number of characters to get your message across. So numbers were often inserted instead of words or to make up parts of words. Example: Wait for your mates too => W8 4 your m8s 2 Challenge: Write a code which will replace numbers with text where required. 1. Replace any written number 2.

Text with 2 number possibilities must have both numbers emplaced IE: Attenuate => At10u8. sample = ''' Write one code to attenuate the number of letters in these two messages. Will your two mates wait for us too. I own seventeen assinine canines which will sell for sixty fivers.''' */ #include #include #include #include using namespace std; void jurassify(string& s){ size_t found; vector>v={ {"1", "one"}, {"2","too"}, {"1", "One"}, {"8","eight"}, {"2","two"}, {"7","seven"}, {"4","for"}, {"8","ait"}, {"5","five"}, {"6","six"}, {"9","nine"}, {"8","ate"}}; for(const auto &item : v){ while((found=s.find(item.second))!=std::string::npos){ s.replace(found, (item.second).length(), item.first); } } } int main() { string s1="Wait for your mates too", s2="Will your two mates wait for us too.", s3="I own seventeen assinine canines, which will sell for sixty fivers.", s4="The archaic word albeit \ndoes not rhyme with eight-you see it; \nWith and forthwith, one has voice, \nOne has not, you make your choice.\n\n"; cout<<"substitute numbers in text: "<
