Encoding a word into Pig Latin
Design a program to take a word as an input, and then encode it into Pig Latin. A Pig Latin is an encrypted word in English, which is generated by doing the following alterations:
The first vowel occurring in the input word is placed at the start of the new word along with the remaining alphabet of it. The alphabet is present before the first vowel is shifted, at the end of the new word it is followed by “ay”.
Examples:
Input: s = "paris" Output: arispay Input: s = "amazon" Output: amazonay
- Find index of first vowel.
- Create pig latin by appending following three.
- Substring after starting with the first vowel ……..till end.
- Substring before first vowel.
- “ay”.
Implementation:
CPP
// C++ program to encode a word to a Pig Latin. #include <bits/stdc++.h> using namespace std; bool isVowel( char c) { return (c == 'A' || c == 'E' || c == 'I' || c == 'O' || c == 'U' || c == 'a' || c == 'e' || c == 'i' || c == 'o' || c == 'u' ); } string pigLatin(string s) { // the index of the first vowel is stored. int len = s.length(); int index = -1; for ( int i = 0; i < len; i++) { if (isVowel(s[i])) { index = i; break ; } } // Pig Latin is possible only if vowels // is present if (index == -1) return "-1" ; // Take all characters after index (including // index). Append all characters which are before // index. Finally append "ay" return s.substr(index) + s.substr(0, index) + "ay" ; } // Driver code int main() { string str = pigLatin( "graphic" ); if (str == "-1" ) cout << "No vowels found. Pig Latin not possible" ; else cout << str; } |
Java
// Java program to encode a word to a Pig Latin. class GFG { static boolean isVowel( char c) { return (c == 'A' || c == 'E' || c == 'I' || c == 'O' || c == 'U' || c == 'a' || c == 'e' || c == 'i' || c == 'o' || c == 'u' ); } static String pigLatin(String s) { // the index of the first vowel is stored. int len = s.length(); int index = - 1 ; for ( int i = 0 ; i < len; i++) { if (isVowel(s.charAt(i))) { index = i; break ; } } // Pig Latin is possible only if vowels // is present if (index == - 1 ) return "-1" ; // Take all characters after index (including // index). Append all characters which are before // index. Finally append "ay" return s.substring(index) + s.substring( 0 , index) + "ay" ; } // Driver code public static void main(String[] args) { String str = pigLatin( "graphic" ); if (str == "-1" ) System.out.print( "No vowels found." + "Pig Latin not possible" ); else System.out.print(str); } } // This code is contributed by Anant Agarwal. |
