Can anyone help me with this program???

Please email me cyprien@cox.net



The Program

You will write a program which will prompt the user to enter a string and accept the string using service 8. It will then count the number of occurrences of each character in the user's input and display the count. Running the program may look like the following (user's input is in italics):
-> I regret that I have but one program to write. : 9.: 1I: 2a: 3b: 1e: 5g: 2h: 2i: 1m: 1n: 1o: 3p: 1r: 5t: 6u: 1v: 1w: 1
Internals

You will create a "count" array of 128 bytes, one for each ASCII character. Initialize this array to all 0s. After you read input using service 8, go through the input array and for each character in the array add one to the position in the count array which has the current character's ASCII code for its index. For example, if the current character is 'A' you will increment position 65 in the count array. To display the counts run a loop reading the count array from position 32 to position 127 and whenever the value found is greater than 0 display the character having the ASCII code of the current index and display the count found in that position of the array.

You must make significant and appropriate use of procedures in your program. Your program should show a clearly thought-out design and good organization.

Notes:

You will need a character array for user input. It should be at least 80 bytes long.

When displaying the counts you can skip positions 0 through 31 in the count array since these correspond to ASCII codes for non-printing characters. When you read or write to the count array remember that you are reading or writing bytes not words.
