MP2: FindLineScript

Learning Objectivies

• Re-application of string and text processing
• Application of string features (trim, contains, toLowerCase, concatenation)

Introduction

This program reads a movie script and searches for the line(s) with the given text. When the program starts, it asks you to enter the words to search for. The program reads one line at a time. If the line contains the search phrase, it prints the current line number and the line. See the example output below, noting that the test is case insensitive.

Clarification

• You need to get the output exactly correct (including the printing a newline character at the end)
• Look at the sample code in MyScriptPrinter for ideas about the basic structure of your program
• You need to use several string methods (see learning objectives) to solve this problem
• You only need to compare one line at a time
