  7.  * This program will accept a sentence from the user and return the number of 
  8.  * words and letters within it and then the average letters per word. 
  9.  * 
  10.  * Formula used:
  11.  * average = (letterCount * 1.0) / wordCount
  12.  * ____________________________________________________________________________
  13.  * Input
  14.  *   SIZE           :Word limit for the input
  15.  *   cstringInput   :Cstring version of input
  16.  *   
  17.  * Output
  18.  *   wordCount      :Amount of words in the c-string
  19.  *   letterCount    :Amount of letters in the string
  20.  *   averageLetters :Average amount of letters per word
