Program to count the brackets in a string?

Answer 1

// Let's assume you want to search for all square brackets []

public static int getBracketCount(final String str) {

int bracketCount = 0;

// Iterate through each character in str.

for (final char ch : str.toCharArray()) {

// If the current character is a bracket, increase bracketCount.

switch (ch) {

case '[':

case ']':

++bracketCount;

}

}

return bracketCount;

}

// Let's assume you want to search for all square brackets []

int getBracketCount(const char* str) {

int bracketCount = 0;

// Iterate through each character in str.

int i= 0;

while( str[i] != '\0' ) {

switch(str[i]) {

case '[':

case ']':

++bracketCount;

}

++i;

}

return bracketCount ;

}
