Homework Laboratory Assignment 5:
For the next homework assignment, we shall learn the use of arrays and strings. We shall assume that there is a body of ordinary text stored in a file in our directory. Our goal is to read the file and count how many words of each length are in the file. We shall also find out what word length is used most frequently, what word length is used least frequently, what the longest word, and what the shortest word is in the file. Your C++ program should use an array for the counting problem. You may begin to use the printf() function to format your output. You may use the unix "redirection of input stream" to read the data file. Have your program display the data file as it is read back to the workstation screen.
