devowel.c
which reads characters from its input
and writes the same characters to its output, except it does not write lower case vowels ('a', 'e','i', 'o', 'u').
Your program should stop only at the end of input.
For example:
./devowel Are you saying 'Boo' or 'Boo-Urns'? Ar y syng 'B' r 'B-Urns'? It was the best of times. It was the worst of times. It ws th bst f tms. It ws th wrst f tms.Hint: hint use
getchar
to read characters don't use scanf
or fgets
.
Hint: use putchar
to output each character.
As usual autotest is available to help you test your program.

caesar.c
which reads characters from its input
and writes the characters to its output encrypted with a Caesar cipher.
A Caesar cipher shifts each letter a certain number of positions in the alphabet.
The number of positions to shift will be given to your program as a command line argument.
Characters other than letters should not be encrypted.
Your program should stop only at the end of input.
Your program should contain at least one function other than main.
For example:
./caesar 1 This life well it's slipping right through my hands Uijt mjgf xfmm ju't tmjqqjoh sjhiu uispvhi nz iboet These days turned out nothing like I had planned Uiftf ebzt uvsofe pvu opuijoh mjlf J ibe qmboofe ./caesar 10 abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz klmnopqrstuvwxyzabcdefghij ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ KLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZABCDEFGHIJ ./caesar -42 Control well it's slipping right through my hands Myxdbyv govv sd'c cvszzsxq bsqrd drbyeqr wi rkxnc These days? Droco nkic?Hint: handle upper and lower case letters separately
Hint: use %
Hint: use atoi
to convert the command-line argument to an int.
As usual autotest is available to help you test your program.

letter_frequency.c
which reads characters from its input
until end of input.
It should then print the occurance frequency for each of the 26 letters 'a'..'z'.
The frequency should be printed as a decimal value and an absolute number in exactly the format below.
Note upper and lower case letters are counted together.
For example:
./letter_frequency Hello and goodbye. 'a' 0.066667 1 'b' 0.066667 1 'c' 0.000000 0 'd' 0.133333 2 'e' 0.133333 2 'f' 0.000000 0 'g' 0.066667 1 'h' 0.066667 1 'i' 0.000000 0 'j' 0.000000 0 'k' 0.000000 0 'l' 0.133333 2 'm' 0.000000 0 'n' 0.066667 1 'o' 0.200000 3 'p' 0.000000 0 'q' 0.000000 0 'r' 0.000000 0 's' 0.000000 0 't' 0.000000 0 'u' 0.000000 0 'v' 0.000000 0 'w' 0.000000 0 'x' 0.000000 0 'y' 0.066667 1 'z' 0.000000 0 ./letter_frequency Hey!

As usual autotest is available to help you help test your program.
~cs1511/bin/autotest lab06 letter_frequency.c
A Substitution cipher maps each letter to another letter.
The mapping will be given to your program as a single command line argument. This command line argument will contain 26 characters: an ordering of the letters 'a'..'z'.
Characters other than letters should not be encrypted.
Your program should stop only at the end of input.
Your program should contain at least one function other than main.
For example:
./substitution qwertyuiopasdfghjklzxcvbnm I was scared of dentists and the dark O vql leqktr gy rtfzolzl qfr zit rqka I was scared of pretty girls and starting conversations O vql leqktr gy hktzzn uoksl qfr lzqkzofu egfctklqzogfl ./substitution abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz The identity cipher!!!

Hint: use letter_frequency.c on the encrypted text and compare the frequencies to English letter frequencies and then try your guesses with decode.c
Your program should make no assumptions about the language of the original text - don't assume its English.
Your program will be given as a command-line argument the name of a file containing a large amount of unencrypted text in the same language as the encrypted text.
Your program will be given the encrypted text on standard input. You may read it all before printing the decryption.
You may assume the encrypted text contains at most 10000 characters.
For example: /import/adams/A/cs1511/public_html/17s1/tlb/06/unsw.txt
contains 42000 characters of English text
(UNSW students on facebook)
For example, here is some English text encrypted with a Caesar cipher with an unknown shift:

Use these frequencies as estimate of the probability each letter will be used. Test all possible shifts using these probabilities to see which is the most likely..
As usual autotest is available to help you test your program.
~cs1511/bin/autotest lab06 crack_caesar.c
Your program should make no assumptions about the language of the original text - don't assume its English. In other words don't hard code English properties into your program, extract the statistical properties from the sample plain text.
Your program will be given as a command-line argument the name of a file containing a large amount of unencrypted text in the same language as the encrypted text.
Your program will be given the encrypted text on standard input. You may read it all before printing the decryption.
You may assume the encrypted text contains at most 10000 characters.

An autotest is available to help you test your program but because this is a difficult problem it is possible very good attempts at the problem won't pass the autotests.
