write a program that reads in a file and counts the number
of lines, words, and characters. Your program should ask the
user to input a filename. Open the file and report an error
if the file does not exist or cannot be opened for some
other reason.
Then read in the contents of the file and count the number
of lines, words, and characters in the file. Also print
additional information about the file, such as the longest
and shortest words, and longest and shortest lines. For
simplicity, we define a word to be one or more characters
ending with white space (a space, tab, carriage return,
etc.). Functions for checking the types of characters can be
found in the ctype.h header file, so you want to include
this header file in your program.
For example, the sentence below could be all that is in a
file. This sentence
IT 104 is taught in C++.
has 32 characters, one line, and six words. The shortest
line is 32 characters. The longest line is 32 characters.
The shortest word is 2 characters. The longest word is 6
characters
