Find words which contains more than 3 e vowels

From Rosetta Code
Find words which contains more than 3 e vowels is a draft programming task. It is not yet considered ready to be promoted as a complete task, for reasons that should be found in its talk page.
Task

Use the dictionary   unixdict.txt

Find words which contains more than three   e   vowels   and   contains only   e   vowels.

Show the output here on this page.

Action!

In the following solution the input file unixdict.txt is loaded from H6 drive. Altirra emulator automatically converts CR/LF character from ASCII into 155 character in ATASCII charset used by Atari 8-bit computer when one from H6-H10 hard drive under DOS 2.5 is used.

BYTE FUNC Count(CHAR ARRAY text CHAR c)
  BYTE i,n

    FI
  OD
RETURN (n)

BYTE FUNC IsValidWord(CHAR ARRAY word)

  IF Count(word,'e)<=3 THEN RETURN(0) FI
  IF Count(word,'i)#0 THEN RETURN(0) FI
  IF Count(word,'o)#0 THEN RETURN(0) FI

Interesting to note the word with the most es is "dereference" - a term first used (I believe) in Algol 68...

The source of files.incl.a68 is on a separate page on Rosetta Code, see the above link.

Delphi

Works with: Delphi version 6.0

This program makes extensive use of the standard Delphi TStringList component. It holds the dictionary, which is preloaded. It capture the E-Vowel-only information in a TStringList and uses it to display the words.

var Dict: TStringList;	{List holds dictionary}

function HasEVowels(S: string): boolean;
{Test if string has exclusively E-Vowels and no "a,i,o,u"}
var I,ECount: integer;
begin
Result:=False;
ECount:=0;
for I:=1 to Length(S) do
	begin
	if S[I] in ['a','i','o','u'] then exit;
	if S[I]='e' then Inc(ECount);
	end;
Result:=ECount>3;
end;


procedure ShowEVowels(Memo: TMemo);
{Show words in dictionary that only}
{have e-vowels and have at least three}
var I: integer;
var SL: TStringList;
var S: string;
begin
SL:=TStringList.Create;
try
{Make list of words with least three E-vowels}
for I:=0 to Dict.Count-1 do
 if HasEVowels(Dict[I]) then SL.Add(Dict[I]);
{Display all the words found}
S:='Found: '+IntToStr(SL.Count)+#$0D#$0A;
for I:=0 to SL.Count-1 do
	begin
	S:=S+Format('%-23s',[SL[I]]);
	if (I mod 4)=3 then S:=S+#$0D#$0A;
	end;
Memo.Text:=S;
finally SL.Free; end;
end;



initialization

R

Adapting this from https://rosettacode.org/wiki/Find_words_which_contains_all_the_vowels#R is trivial.

dict <- scan("https://web.archive.org/web/20180611003215/http://www.puzzlers.org/pub/wordlists/unixdict.txt", what = character())
#The following line is equivalent to sapply(c("a", "i", "o", "u"), function(x) stringr::str_count(dict, x))
#As with all things with strings in R, life is easier with stringr or stringi.
notEVowelCount <- sapply(c("a", "i", "o", "u"), function(x) lengths(regmatches(dict, gregexec(x, dict))))
eCount <- lengths(regmatches(dict, gregexec("e", dict)))
dict[apply(notEVowelCount, MARGIN = 1, function(x) all(x < 1)) & eCount > 3]

Hardly even worth saving as a script file; an easily entered one-liner.

In an attempt to be a little less useless, here's an alternate script that allows you to specify a vowel, the minimum count to search for, and the file to search. Counts base vowels case, and combining accent insensitive; works with any text file, not just word lists. Defaults to finding words with at least 4 'e's in unixdict.txt. Default output is same as above.

unit sub MAIN ($vowel = 'e', $min = 4, $file = 'unixdict.txt');
.say for squish sort
  ( $file.IO.slurp.words.grep: { ((my $b = .lc.samemark(' ').comb.Bag){$vowel} >= $min) && $b<a e i o u>.sum == $b{$vowel} } )\
  ».subst(/<[":;,.?!_\[\]]>/, '', :g);

How about: find words with at least 4 'a's in the Les Misérables file used for the Word frequency task?

REXX

This REXX version doesn't care what order the words in the dictionary are in,   nor does it care what
case  (lower/upper/mixed)  the words are in,   the search for the words and vowels is   caseless.

It also allows the vowel to be specified,   and also the minimum number of the specific vowels to be specified on the command line (CL) as well as the dictionary file identifier.
