CPSC 121::Third Project Character Pictures

due 13 April 2014

Background: A CharacterPicture is a rectangular array of characters that can be printed, with or without a fra e! "or e#a ple, gi$en the following strings:
char* init[] = { Miami, in the, Autumn };

The unfra ed CharacterPicture would loo% li%e this:

Miami in the Autumn // unframed picture

and the fra ed CharacterPicture would loo% li%e this:

+------+ |Miami | |in the| |Autumn| +------+ // framed picture

To

a%e this tas%

ore interesting, we should be able to hori&ontally concatenate CharacterPictures:

// horizontal Concat. Of framed and unframed

Miami +------+ in the|Miami | Autumn|in the| |Autumn| +------+

and $ertically concatenate the :

+------+ |London| |in the| // vertical concat. of framed picture and (horiz. concat. Of unframed and framed |Fall | +------+ Miami !""""""! in the# Miami # Autumn#in the# #Autumn# !""""""!

and of course, we should be able to frame the resulting pictures, without restriction 'other than e$entually running out of screen space(
+--------------+ |!""""""! | |#$ondon# | |#in the# | |#%a&& # | |!""""""! | |Miami !""""""!| |in the#Miami #| |Autumn#in the#| | #Autumn#| | !""""""!| +--------------+ // FRAME of (vert. Concat. Of framed picture // and (horiz. Concat of unframed and framed
