Hey guys this is a program i am working on for my programming class. Arrays.. I am studying programming in Mexico. My program contains spanish words.

This program needs to pring the amount of vowels that is located in a sentence the user typed:

a=
e=
i=
o=
u=

I am having problems with that part. This rest of the program is working. My only problem is counting the single vowels themselves.
can you help me please.



#include <iostream.h>
#include <conio.h>

void main(){

clrscr();
char lectura[80];
int vocalnum,cm=0,cmin=0,vm=0,vmin=0;

cout <<"Write a sentence):\n "<<endl;
cin.getline(lectura,80);
for(int x=0; lectura[x]!='\0';x++){
if(lectura[x]=='A'||lectura[x]=='E'||lectura[x]=='I'||lectura[x]=='O'||lectura[x]=='U')
vm++;
else
if(lectura[x]=='a'||lectura[x]=='e'||lectura[x]=='i'||lectura[x]=='o'||lectura[x]=='u')
vmin++;
else
if(lectura[x]>+65&&lectura[x]<=90)
cm++;
else
if (lectura[x]>+97&&lectura[x]<=122)
cmin++;
}

cout<<"\n\n\n"<<endl;
cout<<"Uppercase Consonants = " <<cm<< endl;
cout<<"Lowercase Consonants = " <<cmin<< endl;
cout<<"Uppercase Vowels = " <<vm<< endl;
cout<<" A = "<<<<endl;
cout<<" E = "<<endl;
cout<<" I = "<<endl;
cout<<" O = "<<endl;
cout<<" U = "<<endl;
cout<<"Lowercase Vowels = " <<vmin<< endl;
cout<<" a = "<<endl;
cout<<" e = "<<endl;
cout<<" i = "<<endl;
cout<<" o = "<<endl;
cout<<" u = "<<endl;
vocalnum = vm+vmin;
cout<< "\nTotal number of vowels = " <<vocalnum<< endl;
getch();
}

You've already got the idea donw...where you are currently checking several conditions for a vowel, you'll have to further check which vowel it is...example:

Of course, this is a brute force method...you can use a switch statement to catch the conditions, if lowercase case a increment vmin and vowa, etc...
