Hello, I am writing a program to compute the frequencies of vowels and number of consonsants from a user's input.

I'm encountering a logic error in which items such as the space character, the exclaimation mark and others are being counted for consonants and I don't want that. Could I get some help in fixing this?

Note: everything compiles and otherwise works fine.

My program is below.
