Reverse the gender of a string: Difference between revisions

=={{header|J}}==

Note that we cannot do a good job for the general case of english text using simple rules. For example, consider:

* Give her the book.

* It is her book.

* Give him the book.

* It is his book.

For this simple example, to determine whether to change ''her'' to ''him'' or ''his'' we would need a grammatical representation of the surrounding context.

So, for now, we limit ourselves to the simple case specified in the task example, and do not even do all that great of a job there, either.:

<lang J>cheaptrick=: rplc&(;:'She He He She')</lang>

And, the task example:

<lang J> cheaptrick 'She was a soul stripper. She took my heart!'

He was a soul stripper. He took my heart!

cheaptrick cheaptrick 'She was a soul stripper. She took my heart!'

She was a soul stripper. She took my heart!</lang>
