String

String
• String are used to stored text.
• String contain a number of characters and the characters in a string can be labelled by position number.
• The first character in a string can be in position zero or position one

Pseudocode
DECLARE Str : STRING

Str  “ Hello World”

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11
H e l l o W o r l d
Library Routines/ Subprogram for String manipulation

• length – finding the number of characters in the string.


Str  “Hello World”
Len  LENGTH(Str) // 11
• substring- extracting the part of string
Substr  SUBSTRING(Str, 1,5) // Hello
Substr  SUBSTRING(Str, 7,5) // World
• upper – converting all the letters in a string to uppercase
Str  UCASE(Str) // HELLO WORLD
• lower- converting all the letters in a string to lowercase
Str  LCASE ( Str) // hello world
(a) Show the value of the variable after each pseudocode statement has been executed.
1. P ← "Computer Science" ........................................................................................
2. Q ← LENGTH(P) ...................................................................................................
3. R ← SUBSTRING(P,10,7) ......................................................................................
4. S ← LENGTH(R) ....................................................................................................
5. T ← SUBSTRING(R,1,3) .......................................................................................
1.(a) Write the pseudocode statements to:
• store the string "The beginning is the most important part" in Phrase
• calculate and output the length of the string
• output the string in upper case.
Phrase  “The beginning is the most important part”
OUTPUT LENGTH(Phrase)
OUTPUT UCASE ( Phrase)

(b) Write the output your pseudocode should produce.


40
THE BEGINNING IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART
2.The variables X, Y and Z are used to store data in a program:
• X stores a string
• Y stores a position in the string (e.g. 2)
• Z stores the number of characters in the string.
(a) Write pseudocode statements to declare the variables X, Y and Z.

DECLARE X : STRING
DECLARE Y : INTEGER
DECLARE Z : INTEGER
(b)The function Length(X) finds the length of a string X.
The function SubString(X,Y,Z) finds a substring of X starting at position Y and Z characters long. The first
character in X is in position 1.
• Write pseudocode statements to:
• store the string "Programming is fun" in X
• find the length of the string and output it
• extract the word “fun” from the string and output it. // SUBSTRING (X, 16,3)
X  “Programming is fun”
OUTPUT LENGTH(X)
Y 16
Z 3
OUTPUT SUBSTRING(X,Y,Z)
Pcount  0
FOR Count  1 TO LENGTH(X)
IF SUBSTRING(X,Count,1) = “P” OR SUBSTRING(X,Count,1) = “p” THEN
Pcount Pcount +1
ENDIF
NEXT Count
OUTPUT Pcount
The variables P and Q are used to store data in a program. P stores a string. Q stores a character.
(a) Write pseudocode statements to declare the variables P and Q, store "The world" in P and store
'W' in Q
(b) Write a pseudocode algorithm to:
• convert P to upper case
• find the position of Q in the string P (the first character in this string is in position 1)
• store the position of Q in the variable Position

DECLARE P : STRING
DECLARE Q : CHARACTER
P “The world”
Q ‘W’
PUCASE(P)
FOR Count  1 TO LENGTH(P)
IF SUBSTRING(P,Count,1) = Q THEN
Position Count
ENDIF
NEXT Count
OUTOUT Position
• Write a pseudocode which take the string as the input and
• Find and output the reverse string of the given input string
• Input Hello
• Reverse olleH
• OUTPUT “Enter String:”
• INPUT Str
• Rstr  “”
• Index  LENGTH(Str)
• REPEAT
• Rstr  Rstr+ SUBSTRING(Str,Index,1)
• Index  Index-1
• UNTIL Index = 0
• OUTPUT Rstr

Length Language
Mystr  “Hello World” Pseudocode
StrLength  LENGTH(Mystr)
Or
StrLength  LENGTH (“Hello World”)

Substring – to extract World Language
Mystr  “Hello World” Pseudocode
Substr  SUBSTRING (Mystr , 7,5)
Or
Substr  SUBSTRING (“Hello World”, 7 , 5)
mystr = “Hello World” Python
mystr[ 6 : 11]
Or
“Hello World” [ 6: 11]

mystr = “Hello World” Python mystr = “Hello World” Python
substr = mystr.upper() substr = mystr.lower()
Or Or
substr =“Hello World”.upper() substr =“Hello World”.lower()
File Handling
Purpose of storing data in a file
• While any data stored in RAM will be lost when the computer in switched off, when data is saved to
a file it is stored permanently.
• Data stored in a file can be accessed by the same program or accessed by another program.

Write File in Pseudocode Read File in Pseudocode

OPEN filename FOR WRITE OPEN filename FOR READ


WRITEFILE Filename , Data value READFILE Filename , variable name

CLOSEFILE filename CLOSEFILE filename


• Write a pseudocode which take name as the input and store this input
name in the Name.txt file

OUTPUT “Enter Name:”


INPUT Name
OPEN “Name.txt” FOR WRITE
WRITEFILE “Name.txt”, Name
CLOSEFILE “Name.txt”
• Write a pseudocode which read the data in “Data.txt” File and output
the upper case of this data .
