Create a program that will ask the user to specify a file in the current directory. The program will count and report the number of lines, words and characters. There are several approaches that can be used. Hint: You may want to consider read(), readlines(), readline(), split() method, and/or a for statement such as 'for line in thisfile' might be helpful. The approach is up to you. It is correct if it works!

Explanation:

The following code is written in Python. It is a function that takes in the file directory as an argument, reads the file. Then it counts the lines and words in the file and saves that count in separate variables. Then it loops through the entire file counting the characters, without counting whitespace and newlines breaks. Finally, it prints all of that information out.

def countText(file):

   f = open(file, 'r')

   text = f.read()

   lines = len(text.split('\n'))

   words = len(text.split(' '))

   characters = 0

   for char in text:

       if (char != ' ') and (char != '\n'):

           characters += 1

   print("File Count:")

   print("Lines: " + str(lines))

   print("Words: " + str(words))

   print("Characters: " + str(characters))

universal windows platform is an open source api created by microsoft and first introduced in windows 10. the purpose of this platform is to develop universal apps that run on windows 10, windows 10 mobile, xbox one and hololens without the need to be re-written for each. it supports windows app development using c++, c#, vb.net, and xaml. the api is implemented in c++, and supported in c++, vb.net, c#, f# and javascript. designed as an extension to the windows runtime platform first introduced in windows server 2012 and windows 8, uwp allows developers to create apps that will potentially run on multiple types of devices.

i think its d if im not mistaken
