Write a C Program to Count Vowels and Consonants in a String using Pointer

 #include <stdio.h>
 int main()
 {
    char str[100];
    char *p;
    int  vCount=0,cCount=0;



    printf("Enter any string: ");
    fgets(str, 100, stdin);

    //assign base address of char array to pointer
    p=str;

    //'\0' signifies end of the string
    while(*p!='\0')
    {
        if(*p=='A' ||*p=='E' ||*p=='I' ||*p=='O' ||*p=='U'
            ||*p=='a' ||*p=='e' ||*p=='i' ||*p=='o' ||*p=='u')
            vCount++;
        else
            cCount++;
        //increase the pointer, to point next character
        p++;
    }



    printf("Number of Vowels in String: %d\n",vCount);
    printf("Number of Consonants in String: %d",cCount);
    return 0;
 }
          

Output:

 Enter any string: Aimtocode
 Number of Vowels in String: 5
 Number of Consonants in String: 5
