E-mail Harvester Assignment
From WLCS
Objective:
- Be able to define functions with parameters
- Be able to call functions with parameters
- Be able to use while loops
- Be able to traverse a string
- Be able to manipulate strings
Directions:
- Write a function named findAtSymbol(strng) that takes a single parameter, strng, which is a string. The function should traverse the string and find the "@" symbol. Your function should then return the index of the "@" symbol
- Recreate the find function from Chapter 7. find(strng, ch, index) should return the location of the character ch in string strng, BUT the search should start at index
- Create a find function that does the same thing as the above find function, but instead of searching forwards, make it search backwards. Name the function findBackwards(strng, ch, index).
- Prompt the user for a sentence that contains an e-mail address
- Using the functions that you defined, isolate the e-mail address by finding the space before the @ symbol and the space after the @ symbol. You should print out the slice of the string that contains the e-mail address.
