Solved–Assingment Three –Solution

Description

In this assignment you are going to first implement a Map using a Hash Table with Buckets, and then use the Map for implementing the Concordance function. Let us break each of those tasks down step-by-step.

1. Map

A Map is a data structure that stores (key,value) pairs. When you add an element to a Map, you provide both the key and value. When you read an element from a Map, you give a key, and the function is supposed to return the associated value. You can also test to see if any value is stored under a given key. The MAP interface includes the following:

void initMap (struct hashMap * ht, int tableSize);

int containsKey (struct hashMap * ht, KeyType k);

void insertMap (struct hashMap * ht, KeyType k, ValueType v);

ValueType atMap (struct hashMap * ht, KeyType k);

void removeKey (struct hashMap * ht, KeyType k);

int sizeMap (struct hashMap *ht);

The function initMap() initializes the Hash Table with a given table size. The function containsKey() returns a non-zero integer if the key is found in the Map, and zero, otherwise. The function insertMap() overwrites any previous value associated with the input key. The function atMap() returns a value associated with the input key. It will give an exception if the key is not found, so the best is to test the key using containsKey() before calling atMap(). The function removeKey() removes an entry with the input key from the Hash Table. It does nothing if the key is not found in the table. The function sizeMap() returns the number of elements in the map.

A Hash Table with Buckets is a combination of an array and a linked list. Elements of the array are pointers to links. Each link holds three items: key, value, and pointer to the next link. The following is a structure declaration that you could use to define the Hash Table:

# define KeyType char *

# define ValueType int

struct hashLink {

KeyType key;

ValueType value;

struct hashLink * next;

};

struct hashMap {

struct hashLink ** table;

int tableSize;

int count;

};

As can be seen, our keys are pointers to a string of character values. Use the following folding hash function to compute an integer value from a string key:

int stringHash (char * str) {

int i;

int r = 0;

for (i = 0; str[i] != 0; i++) r += str[i];

return r;

}

2. Concordance

Once you have your Hash Table working, you will implement the concordance function using the Hash Table. Concordance is a function that counts the number of times each word is used in the input text file. For example, if the input text is:

“It was the best of times, It was the worst of times.”

The output of the Concordance function will be:

best: 1

It: 2

was: 2

the: 2

of: 2

worst: 1

Given the input text, you will construct the Hash Table where keys are words found in the input text, and values are counts of how many times the corresponding words appear in the input text.

3. Main function

Your main function in main.c must accept one command line argument as the filename of the input text file. This text file will then be opened to count word frequencies. Your program should: a) Open the file input.txt, b) Read the file, c) Count the frequency of each word found in the input text file, and d) Print out the word frequencies. For the purposes of this assignment, a word may contain only small and capital letters a to z and A to Z, and numbers 0 to 9, and apostrophe, but no other symbols (e.g., dash, underscore, and period are not allowed). The case is important (e.g., It and it are different words). In the main function, you need to print out all words found in the input text file, and their frequencies. Note that the words can be printed in any order (not necessarily by the order of appearance in the input text). Note that for grading this homework, we will use another, our own, input text file.

6. Grading policy

Late submission: 25% reduction for each day after the deadline

25 points = Code compiles well, but has memory issues when running

50 points = Code runs well, but misses to print out some words from the input text, or gives wrong word counts

75 points = Code runs well, prints out all words from the input text, but gives no more than one wrong word count

100 points = Code runs well, prints out all words from the input text, but gives all correct word counts
