C Program Incorrect Output - c

Question

I am currently writing a program that is supposed to receive input from a text file and output statistics about the text such as the number of letters, size of words and how often they occur, and how many times each word occurs. However, every time I run the program, the wordLengthAnalysis does not produce the correct output. The other two run perfectly. Here is some sample text (The number represents how many lines are supposed to be read):

Hello my name is Bob
I live in Canada
Usually it is only off by one number. What should I do to correct my issue? I am very new to programming so I'm sure it is something basic.

Answer 1

The problem is that you need to set counter to 0 at the start of every line.
for(int i = 0; i < lineTotal; i++){
sentenceLength = strlen(&text[i][0]);
counter = 0;
for(int j = 0; j < sentenceLength; j++){
You also need to check if the counter is equal at the end of each line.
for(int j = 0; j < sentenceLength; j++){
if(text[i][j] == ' '){
if(counter == wordLength){
wordSize++;
counter = 0;
}
else{
counter = 0;
}
}
else{
counter++;
}
}
if(counter == wordLength){
wordSize++;
counter = 0;
}
Hope this helps!
