$6\mathrm{.}19$ LAB: Thesaurus

Given a set of text files containing synonyms for different words, complete the main program to output the synonyms for a specific word.

Each text file contains synonyms for the word specified in the file's name, and each row within the file lists the word's synonyms that begin

with the same letter, separated by a space. The program reads a word and a letter from the user and opens the text file associated with the

input word. The program then stores the contents of the text file into a two$-$dimensional array predefined in the program. Finally the

program searches the array and outputs all the synonyms that begin with the input letter, one synonym per line, or a message if no

synonyms that begin with the input letter are found.

Hints: Use ASCII values to map the row index of the array to the first letter of a word when storing the synonyms into the array. Ex: Index $0$

to an $\text{'}$a$\text{'},$ index $25$ to a $\text{'}z\text{'}.$ Assume all letters are in lowercase.

Ex: If the input of the program is:

educate $c$

the program opens the file educate.txt$,$ which contains:

then the program outputs:

Ex: If the input of the program is:

educate a

then the program outputs:

No synonyms for educate begin with a$.$
