Homework and Emergencies Homework & Coursework Questions Help With spell checking Post 302508082 by mgyeah on Saturday 26th of March 2011 04:43:03 AM

sorry for the late response but letters.h and letters.c are created and the chrutil.c and chrutil.h are given library. Sorry i reread the hw and misunderstood it that the only file i should include are only letters.h and letters.c, so i am moving prototype i need from chrutil.h and chrutil.c to letters.h and letters.c. The first problem is when i type a word it only reads the first letter of that word (still trying to fix it). the next problem is to add another statement in the while loop in spchk.c to determine the three condition on part 1 of the problem, most likely the adding part should be where the comment says "if not in word and not delimiter" and "if in word and a delimiter". also the delimit can be rewritten so i read what the delimit does from chrutil.c it returns only TRUE if it is a white space and a punctuation. I am kind of clueless where to start for that

the function i need to add to this is a function that can read each letter in a word.
a function that can tolerate space. a function that can tell which ends with a vowel or consonant. a function that can tell if the consonant are adjacent.
