I've been going round in circles with this now for a few hours. It manages the first word of the recommended test (Meet me at the park at eleven am) gets over the first spaces, gives a correct letter for m then prints several spaces before ending. Many thanks in advance.

Your function definition and declaration don't match. You should declare int allstralpha(string s);
In first line of main:
int main(int argc, string argv[])
{
string keyw = argv[1];
...
}
First you should check if (argc > 1) before accessing argv[1]
For the actual code itself, you provide the plain text, but I can't see the keyword.
I use these values from wikipedia, vigenère cipher for testing:
Plaintext: ATTACKATDAWN
Key: LEMONLEMONLE
Ciphertext: LXFOPVEFRNHR
Minimum code to finish this:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <ctype.h>
int main(int argc, const char* argv[])
{
const char *str = "Meet me at the park at eleven am";
const char *key = "bacon";
int keylen = strlen(key);
int len = strlen(str);
for (int i = 0, j = 0; i < len; i++)
{
int c = str[i];
if (isalnum(c))
{
//int k = function of key and `j`...
//offset k...
if (islower(c))

c = (c - 'a' + k) % 26 + 'a';

I know it sounds real stupid, but It is cuz I just lightly learned Java and Python last year...
now I am try to do C properly with CS50.
on week 2, there is Caesar encipher text program task.
I tried to use += on string to stack char(s) one by one.
And of course it didn't work.
but is there any other way to do it similarly?
here is the code
#include <stdio.h>
#include <cs50.h>
#include <ctype.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
string encipher(string x, int y);
int main(int argc, string argv[])
{
string key = argv[1];
bool num_flag = false;
for (int i = 0; i < strlen(key); i++)
{
int k = isdigit(key[i]);
if (k == 0)
{
num_flag = true;
}
}
if (num_flag == true)
{
printf("Usage: ./caesar key\n");
}
else
{
int keys = atoi(argv[1]);
string c = get_string("plaintext: ");
string ciphertext = encipher(c, keys);
printf("ciphertext: %s\n", ciphertext);
}
}
string encipher(string x, int y)
{
string cip = "";
for (int i = 0; i < strlen(x); i++)
{
int low = islower(x[i]);
int upper = isupper(x[i]);
if (low != 0)
{
char lo = x[i] - 97;
char c = (lo + y) % 26;
char l = c + 97;
cip += l;
}
else if (upper != 0)
{
char up = x[i] - 65;
char c = (up + y) % 26;
char u = c + 65;
cip += u;
}
else
{
cip += x[i];
}
}
return cip;
}
.
I changed code to pass the test, but not perfect either...
#include <stdio.h>
#include <cs50.h>
#include <ctype.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
string encipher(string x, int y);
int main(int argc, string argv[])
{
if(argc != 2)
{
printf("Usage: ./caesar key\n");
}
else
{
string key = argv[1];
bool num_flag = false;
for (int i = 0; i < strlen(key); i++)
{
int k = isdigit(key[i]);
if (k == 0)
{
num_flag = true;
}
}
if (num_flag == true)
{
printf("Usage: ./caesar key\n");
}
else
{
int keys = atoi(argv[1]);
string c = get_string("plaintext: ");
string cipher = encipher(c, keys);
printf("ciphertext: %s\n", cipher);
}
}
}
string encipher(string x, int y)
{
for (int i = 0; i < strlen(x); i++)
{
int low = islower(x[i]);
int upper = isupper(x[i]);
if (low != 0)
{
char lo = x[i] - 97;
char c = (lo + y) % 26;
char l = c + 97;
x[i] = l;
}
else if (upper != 0)
{
char up = x[i] - 65;
char c = (up + y) % 26;
char u = c + 65;
x[i] = u;
}
}
return x;
}
Thanks for helping newbie!
with strncat() you can add chars to an existing string.
( strncat(char DESTINATION STRING, const char SOURCE STRING, AMOUNT OF CHARS YOU WANT TO ADD FROM THE SOURCE) )
In C you can't add string like other high-level languages. You have to use a special function in string.h. Like strcat(first_string, second_string);
An alternative is: char *strncat(char *dest, const char *src, size_t n) to add the first n characters (you can interprete size_t like int).
I'm trying to figure out why my code is not iterating correctly on z. I would like to iterate every 1 z, but it seems like it's a bit random. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I might do this? If there anything else I'm doing wrong, please let me know. I think I'm really close. I'm also curious how I block spaces/other characters from being encrypted.

C does some spooky things when I put the nonAlphaCount declaration above the for loop. I can't explain why the outputs are different.

Both programs exhibit undefined behaviour in
char *keyWord;
...
strcpy(keyWord, args[1]);
which is revealed by the compiler warning: "uninitialized local variable 'keyWord' used". You have not allocated any memory.
If one of the programs happened to work, so be it.
I'm trying to obfuscate word which is stored in string and my code sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. Here is my code:
// main function
int main(int argc, string argv[])
{
string k, plaintext;
int size, i = 0, key = 0;
k = argv[1];
size = strlen(k);
if (argc < 2 || !isNummeric(k, size) || k < 0)
return 1;
else
plaintext = GetString();
size = strlen(plaintext);
char ciphertext[size];
key = atoi(k);
while(i < size)
{
if (isalpha(plaintext[i]))
{
encipher(key, i, &ciphertext[i], plaintext);
}
else
{
ciphertext[i] = plaintext[i];
}
i++;
}
printf("%s\n",ciphertext);
}
A key is received from the user to shift each letter and I need to check whether the key is numeric value or not so I made isNummeric function to do that
bool isNummeric(string k, int size)
{
int c=0;
for(int i=0; i<size; i++)
{
if(!isdigit(k[i]))
c++;
}
if(c==0)
return true;
return false;
}
Now to encipher I made function to shift each letter:
void encipher(int k, int i, char *pt, string plaintext)
{
int p, c;
if(islower(plaintext[i]))
{
p=plaintext[i]-'a';
c=(p+k)%26;
*pt=c+97;
}
else
{
p=plaintext[i]-'A';
c=(p+k)%26;
*pt=c+65;
}
}
Assembling multiple comments from the question into fixed code yields the following code which seems to work:
#include <cs50.h>
#include <ctype.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
static bool isNumeric(string k, int size)
{
for (int i = 0; i < size; i++)
{
if (!isdigit((unsigned char)k[i]))
return false;
}
return true;
}
/* There are too many arguments to this function - but it works */
static void encipher(int k, int i, char *pt, string plaintext)
{
int p, c;
if (islower((unsigned char)plaintext[i]))
{
p = plaintext[i] - 'a';
c = (p + k) % 26;
*pt = c + 'a';
}
else
{
p = plaintext[i] - 'A';
c = (p + k) % 26;
*pt = c + 'A';
}
}
int main(int argc, string argv[])
{
string k = argv[1];
if (argc < 2 || !isNumeric(k, strlen(k)))
return 1;
string plaintext = GetString();
int size = strlen(plaintext);
char ciphertext[size + 1];
int key = atoi(k);
for (int i = 0; i < size; i++)
{
if (isalpha(plaintext[i]))
{
encipher(key, i, &ciphertext[i], plaintext);
}
else
{
ciphertext[i] = plaintext[i];
}
}
ciphertext[size] = '\0';
printf("%s\n", ciphertext);
}
The program was called csr13, and gives the following outputs:
$ csr13 4
The Quick Brown Fox Jumped Over The Lazy Dog
Xli Uymgo Fvsar Jsb Nyqtih Sziv Xli Pedc Hsk
$ csr13 22
Xli Uymgo Fvsar Jsb Nyqtih Sziv Xli Pedc Hsk
The Quick Brown Fox Jumped Over The Lazy Dog
$
A better design for the encipher function would pass the single character plus the 'key' offset and would return the encrypted character:
#include <assert.h>
#include <cs50.h>
#include <ctype.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
static bool isNumeric(string k, int size)
{
for (int i = 0; i < size; i++)
{
if (!isdigit((unsigned char)k[i]))
return false;
}
return true;
}
static int encipher(int k, int c)
{
assert(isalpha(c));
if (islower(c))
return (c - 'a' + k) % 26 + 'a';
else
return (c - 'A' + k) % 26 + 'A';
}
int main(int argc, string argv[])
{
string k = argv[1];
if (argc < 2 || !isNumeric(k, strlen(k)))
return 1;
string plaintext = GetString();
int size = strlen(plaintext);
char ciphertext[size + 1];
int key = atoi(k);
for (int i = 0; i < size; i++)
{
if (isalpha(plaintext[i]))
ciphertext[i] = encipher(key, plaintext[i]);
else
ciphertext[i] = plaintext[i];
}
ciphertext[size] = '\0';
printf("%s\n", ciphertext);
}
The cipher code actually works; it's just that I get some odd three digit codes separated with slashes too.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here's my code.
The codes look like this but have random numbers /354/233/645/810/236
#include <ctype.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>

for (i=0; i<len; i++) {
if (sentance[i] >='a' && sentance[i] <='z') {
encrypted[i] = ((sentance[i] - 'a' + k) % 26) + 'a';
}
else if (sentance[i] >='A' && sentance[i] <='Z') {
encrypted[i] = ((sentance[i] - 'A' + k) % 26) + 'A';
}
else if (sentance[i] >=' ' && sentance[i] <= '#'){
encrypted[i] = sentance[i];
}
}
printf("%s", encrypted);
return 0;
};
int main (int argc, const char * argv[]) {
if (argc==2) {
k = atoi(argv[1]);
argvLen = strlen(argv[1]);
for (i=0; i<argvLen; i++){
if (isdigit(argv[1][i])){
caesar(k);
}
else {
printf("please enter a number for the key!");
return 1;
}
}
return 0;
}
};
You are not terminating the encrypted string properly.
You need:
To make sure you have room for the terminating character, by using char encrypted[len + 1];.
encrypted[len] = '\0'; after the loop.
