A computer program is a collection of instructions that performs specific task when executed by a computer.

Computer requires programs to function.

Computer program is usually written by a computer programmer in programming language.

A collection of computer programs, libraries, and related data are referred to as software.

Computer programs may be categorized along functional lines, such as application software and system software.

Algorithm

• STEP 1: START
• STEP 2: DEFINE String line
• STEP 3: SET count =0
• STEP 4: USE File Reader to open file in read mode.
• STEP 5: READ line from file
• STEP 6: REPEAT STEP 7 to STEP 8 UNTIL reach the end of file
• STEP 7: SPLIT lines into words and STORE in array string words[].
• STEP 8: count = count + words.length
• STEP 9: PRINT count.
• STEP 10: END

Program:

Output:
