EXPERIMENT 3:

AIM: WAP to count the number of tokens in an expression

THEORY:-

A token is a string of one or more characters that is significant as a group. The process of
forming tokens from an input stream of characters is called tokenization.
Tokens are identified based on the specific rules of the lexer. Some methods used to identify
tokens include: regular expressions, specific sequences of characters known as a flag, specific
separating characters called delimiters, and explicit definition by a dictionary. Special characters,
including punctuation characters, are commonly used by lexers to identify tokens because of
their natural use in written and programming languages.
A lexical analyzer generally does nothing with combinations of tokens, a task left for a parser.
For example, a typical lexical analyzer recognizes parentheses as tokens, but does nothing to
ensure that each "(" is matched with a ")".

CODE:

#include<stdio.h>
#include<ctype.h>
#include<conio.h>
#include<string.h>
int main()
{
charstr[50];
intlen;
inti,a=0,b=0,d=0,f=0,var=0,tokens=0,constant=0,oper=0;
clrscr();
printf("enter string :");
scanf("%s",str);
len=strlen(str);
for(i=0;i<len;i++)
{
if (isalpha(str[i]))
a++;
if (isdigit(str[i]))
{
while(isdigit(str[i]))
{
i++;
}
d++;
}
if(str[i]=='%'||str[i]=='*'||str[i]=='/'||str[i]=='+'||str[i]=='-'||str[i]=='=')
f++;
else
b++;
}
var=a;
constant=d;
oper=f;
tokens=var+constant+oper;
printf("\ntotalvar:%d ",var);
printf("\ntotal constants:%d",constant);
printf("\ntotalopeators:%d",oper);
printf("\ntotal tokens: %d",tokens);
return 0;
getch();
}

OUTPUT;

RESULT:
The program is successfully written and created in the c language
