CODE


#include<stdio.h>
#include<string.h>


main(){

    char str1[30];
    char str2[30];
    int x;

    printf("Enter a name: \n");
    gets(str1);


    printf("Enter another name: \n");
    gets(str2);

    
        x = ((strlen(str1) + strlen(str2)) % 6;//I would like to posiibly know a string function or any other     
        way that counts the number of same character and to replace this part here.//

        switch(x){
            case 0:printf("Sweethearts\n");
        break;
            case 1:printf("Lovers\n");
        break;
            case 2:printf("Anger\n");
        break;
            case 3:printf("Marriage\n");
        break;
            case 4:printf("Enemies\n");
        break;
            case 5:printf("Friends\n");
        break;
        }
