Assignment 11 CB - Change String

Have the function letterChanges(str) take the str parameter being passed and modify it using the following algorithm. Replace every letter in the string with the letter following it in the alphabet (ie. c becomes d, z becomes a). Then capitalize every vowel in this new string (a, e, i, o, u) and finally return this modified string.

Enter a string to change.

$(document).ready(function() { function getString(element) { return $(element).val(); } function letterChanges(str) { var alphabet = ['a','b','c','d','e','f','g','h','i','j','k','l','m','n','o','p','q','r','s','t','u','v','w','x','y','z'], strLen, alphaLen, vowels = ['a','e','i','o','u'], newString; if (str === '') return 'Enter a string, please!'; newString = str.toString().split(''); strLen = newString.length; alphaLen = alphabet.length; for (var i = 0; i < strLen; i++) { for (var j = 0; j < alphaLen; j++) { if (newString[i].toLowerCase() === alphabet[j]) { if (newString[i].toLowerCase() === 'z') { newString[i] = 'A'; break; } else { newString[i] = alphabet[j+1]; if (vowels.indexOf(newString[i]) !== -1) { newString[i] = newString[i].toUpperCase(); } break; } } } } return newString.join(''); } $('.change-string').click(function() { $('.result p ').html('Changed string is: <span>' + letterChanges(getString('.data input')) + '</span>'); }); });
