Help with assignment questions

Hi can anyone send me the questions to assignent 2 of this module. I am in a lurch until i get the book. Thanx

Hi,
You can download Tutorial 101 from my.unisa.ac.za

Can anybody assist with Assignment 03 question 3.4, When iam using neested if statements it only execute the last statement and the rest are ignored, When i try to use a case statement which is the best to use for this problem..the matter is how to make a radiobutton a case statement while not using a radiogroup????

question 3.4 is: What is the index value of the first item in a ListBox?

also question 3 does not contain radio buttons. surely you are referring to a different question?

Sorry!! i meant to say assignment 3 question 1.4

thanx...

still there is no radio buttons.

are you using separate if statements or nested else if statements?

in the case statement you can check for multiple values

case letter of
      'a','b','c' : <statement>;

I used nested else-if statement, i will try to use if statement and i will let you know how it went. for now enjoy your weekend Randal..

Hi Randal!

a feedback of question 1.4 i managed to get it right, i used nested else-if statement with and-not statement.

But i have another problem with question 3.1 it confuses where i have to delete a vowel from a string and display it in the ListBox.
How can u delete a vowel from a string....?

Delete(S, I, C)

where S is your string to search, I is the position in the string to do the delete, and C is the number of characters to delete

I did use a Delete command but is not deleting a character,it deletes the whole string. I think is because of a for loop statement that are used. Alternatively i used Pos() command and still is not doing what i want. Please check my codings below and tell me what is it i'm doing wrong..

procedure TfrmStrings.btnTransferModifyClick(Sender: TObject);
var
word: string;
vowel: char;
i: integer;
begin
word:= edtWord.Text;
i := Pos(' ', word);
if(vowel = 'a' or (vowel ='e' or(vowel ='i' or (vowel ='o'or (vowel ='u'
or(vowel ='A'or(vowel= 'E'or(vowel = 'I'or (vowel = 'O'or(vowel = 'U'then
vowel := word;
lstModify.Items.Add(word);

well, in your code you have no loop. also your code does not modify word in any way. you test the value of vowel without setting its value first and you give i the value of this position in the string that is '' then you assign word to vowel.

Sorry to say, but your code is all mixed up. I suggest you delete everything between begin and end of the procedure and start over.

try loop from the last letter in the string to the first letter

for i := Length(word) downto 1

then in each iteration evaluate the letter of the string

string

if the letter is a vowel, use delete to remove it from the string

Delete(string, i, 1)

Thanx again Randal!!

I managed 2 get it right

cool
