How to Count Vowels, Consonants, and Words in a String in C++?

Here, we will write a program that will count vowels, consonants, and words in the given string. Let us see the program.

Program:

#include <iostream>
#include <string.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
    string str = "This is a string";
    int vowels = 0, consonant = 0, space = 0;

    for (int i = 0; str[i] != '\0'; i++)
    {
        if (str[i] == 'A' || str[i] == 'E' || str[i] == 'I' || str[i] == 'O'
         || str[i] == 'U' || str[i] == 'a' || str[i] == 'e' || str[i] == 'i'
         || str[i] == 'o' || str[i] == 'u')
              vowels++;
        else if (str[i] == ' ')
         space++;
        else
         consonant++;
    }

    cout << "String: " << str << endl;
    cout << "Vowels: " << vowels << endl;
    cout << "Consonants: " << consonant << endl;
    cout << "Words: " << space + 1 << endl;

    return 0;
}
