Well the fact that jails are overcrowded is one factor that shows it's not working. Some people need help from past traumas, abuse, etc. Not everyone that acts out needs to be incarcerated, they need rehabilitation or counseling. Definitely depends on the crime committed. Therefore substance abuse users would be in rehabilitation. Even Juveniles in detention centers don't benefit from incarceration for certain offenses. There is no rehabilitation in incarceration. There are more criminals in jail and incarceration in my opinion, only for some offenders, is the last option. Now for Sex Offenders, Murderers and Criminals with violent crimes my opinion is completely opposite. Some of those offenders should be dealt with according to their crime. Also, all of the people that have been pardoned and them lessening time for drug traffickers and actual drug dealers (not necessarily users) is just a bad thing to pardon them or let them out because they don't have any violent crimes. Isn't dealing drugs, that are killing people every single day just as bad as a violent crime. In my opinion they can sit and rot for the longevity of their sentence. Some need help and I would fully support that only under some circumstances. Others I would rather not have to live amongst them.

Write a loop that reads c-strings from standard input where the c-string is either "land", "air", or "water". The loop terminate
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

I am writing a C++ code.        

#include <iostream> // for input output functions

using namespace std; // identifies objects like cin cout

int main() { //start of main() function body

string c_string; // stores the string entered by user from land water or air

int land=0; // contains the number of times land string is read in

int air=0; //contains the number of times air string is read in

int water = 0; //contains the number of times water string is read in

cin>>c_string; //reads the string entered by user from air water or land

/*while loop continues to execute until user enters xxxxx or maximum length of a string exceeds 8 */

while(c_string!= "xxxxx" && c_string.length()<=8) {

if(c_string=="land"){ // if string entered by user is land

land = land + 1;} //counts and increments each occurrence of land string by 1

else if(c_string=="air"){// if string entered by user is air

air = air + 1;}// counts and increments each occurrence of string air by 1

else if(c_string=="water"){// if string entered by user is water

water = water + 1;}//counts and increments each occurrence of air by 1

cin>>c_string;}

/* keeps reading the string entered by user from land air or water, until the loop breaks after the user enters xxxxx or user enters a string whose length is greater than 8 */

//prints the number of times land, air and water are read in

cout << "land:"<<land;

cout << endl<<"air:"<<air;

cout << endl<< "water:"<<water; }                      

                                                                                     

Explanation:

Everything is well explained in the comments above.

The program prompts the user to input strings. These strings are either land air or water. The while loop continues to read the input strings until user enters xxxxx or the string entered by user exceeds the length 8. Both these terminating conditions are added in the while loop. After the loop terminates, the number of times land, air and water strings are read is displayed on the output screen. Any other string entered by user other than these 3 is ignored. The program along with the output is attached.
