Remove consecutive vowels from string

Given a string s of lowercase letters, we need to remove consecutive vowels from the string

Note : Sentence should not contain two consecutive vowels ( a, e, i, o, u).

Examples :

Input: geeks for geeks
Output: geks for geks

Input : your article is in queue 
Output : yor article is in qu

Recommended: Please try your approach on {IDE} first, before moving on to the solution.

Approach: Iterate string using a loop and check for the repetitiveness of vowels in a given sentence and in case if consecutive vowels are found then delete the vowel till coming next consonant and printing the updated string.

C++

// C++ program for printing sentence 
// without repetitive vowels 
#include <bits/stdc++.h> 
using namespace std; 
  
// function which returns True or False 
// for occurrence of a vowel 
bool is_vow(char c) 
{ 
    // this compares vowel with  
    // character 'c' 
    return (c == 'a') || (c == 'e') ||  
           (c == 'i') || (c == 'o') ||  
           (c == 'u'); 
} 
  
// function to print resultant string 
void removeVowels(string str) 
{ 
    // print 1st character 
    printf("%c", str[0]); 
  
    // loop to check for each character 
    for (int i = 1; str[i]; i++) 
  
        // comparison of consecutive characters 
        if ((!is_vow(str[i - 1])) ||  
            (!is_vow(str[i]))) 
            printf("%c", str[i]); 
} 
  
// Driver Code 
int main() 
{ 
    char str[] = " geeks for geeks"; 
    removeVowels(str); 
}
