Challenge 5 - Count words and lines

[jrmrhrb00]

In a way this seems like an easy challenge, but when you get into it, it is tough! The easy part says just use spaces in between words and count them. For lines just count line feed characters. 

Then you write out a document with Notepad. You write a sentence and terminate it with a period. Then write another sentence and terminate it with a question mark and so on. Maybe you throw in an exclamation point or 2. In your sentences you throw in some numbers. Like I just did. Those are not really words. Do they count? Your sentences don't have linefeed characters. Do they count?

So, my thinking is maybe we should have a little more guidance for this challenge! I have noticed that there is only one reply to this challenge. Maybe this is why.
