You could try:

Decide what characters delimit a word and use strtok() on an input stream
connected to the file to retrieve each word in turn. For each word, determine
whether it is already present in an indexed list of word counts: if so, increment
the count, otherwise add it and set the count to 1. I'll leave you to find
a suitable class for holding the indexed set of word counts - there is a
class perfectly suited.

Good luck.
