Write a lex program to count the lines , Tabs , spaces and other characters . -

In this program we have to count the the number of lines , spaces and characters . This is a lex program so first we have to know how to run a lax program in ubuntu and what is the format of the program . The lex files are save in file_name.l and for running a lex file we use some command which are given below:-

Code:-

%{
#include<stdio.h>
#include<string.h>
int lc=0,tc=0,ch=0,sc=0;
%}
%%
n lc++;
([ ]) sc++;
t tc++;
. ch++;
%%
int main()
{
 yylex();
 printf(“Number of lines are %dn”,lc);
 printf(“Number of spaces are %dn”,sc);
 printf(“Number of tabs are %dn”,tc);
 printf(“Number of characters are %dn”,ch);
 return 0;
}

Output:-

One more thing you have to know for terminate the program press Ctrl+d then it will print the output.
