Caturday Check. Read a string (will not have spaces).

Question

Read a string (will not have spaces). Print "true" if the word "cat" appears starting at the first or second letter. Otherwise print false.

Samples:

Input: catch Output: true

Input: scatter Output: true

Input: concatenate Output: false

Hint: you should not need to check letter by letter... use a string function that allows you to ask "where is this pattern within the string?". Use its answer to decide whether to print true or false

Code:

#include <iostream>

#include <string>

using namespace std;

//Turn off loops - you should not need them!

#define for "OhNoYouDont"

#define while "GetThatOutOfMyKitchen"

//Do not modify anything on or above the line below this

//YOUR_CODE_BELOW

int main()

{

//YOUR_CODE

}

Answer 1

using namespace std;

#include <iostream>

#include <string>

main()

{

string inbuff;

cout << "Input :>";

cin >> inbuff;

string front3 = inbuff.substr(0,3);

string subStr = inbuff.substr(1,3);

if (

(front3.compare("cat")==0) || (subStr.compare("cat")==0)

)

{

cout << "true" << endl;

}

else

{

cout << "false" << endl;

}

}
