PHP: Exercise-74 with Solution

Internet search engine giant, such as Google accepts web pages around the world and classify them, creating a huge database. The search engines also analyze the search keywords entered by the user and create inquiries for database search. In both cases, complicated processing is carried out in order to realize efficient retrieval, but basics are all cutting out words from sentences.
Write a PHP program to cut out words of 3 to 6 characters length from a given sentence not more than 1024 characters.

Input: Multiple character strings are given. One string is given per line

Input:
English sentences consisting of delimiters and alphanumeric characters are given on one line.

Sample Solution:

PHP Code:

<?php
// Read input from standard input (stdin) and trim leading/trailing whitespaces
$stdin = trim(fgets(STDIN));

// Display the original string
echo "Original string: " . $stdin;

// Split the string into an array of words using regular expression (words are separated by spaces, commas, or periods)
$words = preg_split("/[\s,\.]/", $stdin);

// Initialize an array to store words with lengths between 3 and 6 characters
$compWords = array();

// Loop through the array of words
for ($i = 0; $i < count($words); $i++) {
    // Check if the length of the current word is greater than 2 and less than 7
    if (strlen($words[$i]) > 2 && strlen($words[$i]) < 7) {
        // If the condition is met, add the word to the array
        $compWords[] = $words[$i];
    }
}

// Display the filtered words with lengths between 3 and 6 characters
echo "\nWords of 3 to 6 characters length: ";
// Print the filtered words separated by a space and add a newline
print implode(' ', $compWords) . PHP_EOL;

?>
