In this article I will show you how to count the number of vowels and consonants in Javascript what the program will do is to ask the user to enter a word or string and then the program will count the number of vowels and consonants given by the user.
If you have some questions please send me an email at jake.r.pomperada@gmail.com and jakerpomperada@yahoo.com. My mobile number here in the Philippines is 09173084360.
