New Name, New Features, Same Principle.
The Duke Dollars program has relaunched as the Duke Stars program. The premise behind Duke Stars is the same as its predecessor, Duke Dollars: forum users can earn Duke Stars by answering questions posted by fellow developers and receiving points from the question owner. But that's where the similarities end! Take a look at our new features:
Benefits of Duke Stars
Why participate in Duke Stars? Rewarding Duke Stars for your post can motivate forum members to help you find solutions to your problems. Answer questions with Duke Stars and you can help the community while being recognized as an active participant in the exchange of technical knowledge. When a question is answered, Duke Stars get awarded to the forum members who gave the best answer. Help out your community and get rewarded with Duke Stars.
We've Improved Our Looks
You'll notice throughout the site that new images have been added. Duke Stars are symbols of status that indicate the level of participation and expertise of each forum member. The more questions a forum member has answered and been awarded Duke Stars, the higher the forum member is in the overall forum ranking.
Legend of Duke Stars Levels:
Bronze: 0 - 99 points
Silver: 100 - 499 points
Gold: 500 - 999 points
Platinum: 1000+ points

Every forum member will receive a star based on their level of Duke Stars. These stars will show up in threads only, next to screen names.
Star Badges in User Profiles
In each user profile, you will receive a badge that corresponds to your level of Duke Stars. As your Stars increase and you reach the next level, a new badge will be awarded to you.

Automatic Reload of Stars
Are your Duke Stars getting low? Now, forum users with a balance of 15 Duke Stars or less will automatically be granted 25 additional Duke Stars. You'll never run out of Duke Stars so keep posting and rewarding others to get your questions answered.

hi
i am student
i don't know how to write following code
pl. help me
Write a program called LineCensor that asks the user for a word to replace in some text, and the word to replace it with. The program then reads a line of text from the user and echoes the line back to screen replacing all occurrences of the first word with the second word. It only replaces the word being censored when it occurs independently in a line (i.e. not as a part of another word).
Enter word to censor: cat
Enter word to replace it: xxxxx
Enter line of text to censor:
The cat was curious about the other cat's string
The xxxxx was curious about the other cat's string
thanks in advance
