Algorithm

  1.   Start
  2. sent=null
  3. word=null
  4. search=null
  5. k:=0
  6. Print "Enter a sentence"
  7. Read sent
  8. Print "Enter a word to be searched"
  9. Read search
  10. search.trim()
  11. sent.trim()
  12. sent=sent+" "
  13. k=0
  14. If sent.compareTo(" ")!=-1, go to step 15 or else go to step 20
  15. word=sent.substring(0, sent.indexOf(' '))
  16. sent=sent.substring(sent.indexOf(' ')+1, sent.length())
  17. If word.equalsIgnoreCase(search)==true, go to step 18 or else go to step 19
  18. k++
  19. Go to step 14
  20. If (k!=0), go to step 21 or else go to step 22
  21. Print "The word is present in the given sentence". Go to step 23
  22. Print "The word is not present in the given sentence"
  23. Stop

Conversion of Compound Sentences to Complex Sentences.

In this blog, we shall see the rules and guidelines that govern the conversion of compound sentences to complex sentences. The examples given below are taken from the assignment given in section B of Unit 2 in the English Language textbook prescribed for ISC class 11.  It is possible to change a Compound Sentence to a Complex sentence by changing one of the Coordinate Clauses to a Subordinate Clause. Coordinate Clause-  one of two or more clauses in a sentence that are of equal importance and usually joined by  and, or , or  but. Subordinate clause -  a clause, typically introduced by a conjunction, that forms part of and is dependent on a main clause. Compound: He is industrious but he is dull.
