Question

In this program you are to process text to create a KWIX table (Key Word In conteXt table). The idea is to produce a list of keywords (not programming language keywords, rather words that have important technical meaning in a discussion), then for each instance of each keyword, place the keyword, the line number of the context, and the keyword in its context in the table. There may be more than one context for a given keyword. The sequence of entries within a keyword is to be the order of occurrence in the text. For this problem, “context” is a user-selected number of words before the keyword, the keyword itself, and a user-selected number of words after the keyword.

The table has an alphabetized column of keywords followed by a line number(s) where the keyword occurs, followed by a column of all contexts within which the keyword occurs. See the following example. For a choice of text consult your instructor.

Hints: To get your list of keywords, you should choose and type in several paragraphs from the text, then omit from your paragraph “boring” words such as forms of the verb “to be”; pronouns such as I, me, he, she, her, you, us, them, who, which, etc. Finally, sort the keyword list and remove duplicates. The better job you do at this, the more useful output you will get.

Example: A paragraph and its KWIX Listing:

There are at least two complications when reading and writing with random access via an fstream: (1) You normally work in bytes using the type char or arrays of char and need to handle type conversions on your own, and (2) you typically need to position a pointer (indicating where the read or write begins) before each read or write.

KWIX Listing:

Keyword Line Number Keyword in Context

access 2 with random access via

arrays 3 char or arrays of

bytes 2 work in bytes using

char 3 the type char or

char 3 array of char and

conversions 3 handle type conversions on

The table is longer than these sample entries.
