% ========================== Preprocess Email ===========================

% Uncomment the following lines if you are working with raw emails with the
% full headers

% Handle Numbers
% Look for one or more characters between 0-9

% Handle URLS
% Look for strings starting with http:// or https://
email_contents = regexprep(email_contents, ...

% Handle Email Addresses
% Look for strings with @ in the middle

% Handle $ sign

    % Remove any non alphanumeric characters
    str = regexprep(str, '[^a-zA-Z0-9]', '');

    % Stem the word 
    % (the porterStemmer sometimes has issues, so we use a try catch block)
    try str = porterStemmer(strtrim(str)); 
    catch str = ''; continue;
    end;

    % Skip the word if it is too short
    if length(str) < 1
       continue;
    end

    % Look up the word in the dictionary and add to word_indices if
    % found
    % ====================== YOUR CODE HERE ======================
    % Instructions: Fill in this function to add the index of str to
    %               word_indices if it is in the vocabulary. At this point
    %               of the code, you have a stemmed word from the email in
    %               the variable str. You should look up str in the
    %               vocabulary list (vocabList). If a match exists, you
    %               should add the index of the word to the word_indices
    %               vector. Concretely, if str = 'action', then you should
    %               look up the vocabulary list to find where in vocabList
    %               'action' appears. For example, if vocabList{18} =
    %               'action', then, you should add 18 to the word_indices 
    %               vector (e.g., word_indices = [word_indices ; 18]; ).
    % 
    % Note: vocabList{idx} returns a the word with index idx in the
    %       vocabulary list.
    % 
    % Note: You can use strcmp(str1, str2) to compare two strings (str1 and
    %       str2). It will return 1 only if the two strings are equivalent.
    %


	string_found = strcmp(str, vocabList);
	[val, string_index] = max(string_found);
	if(val == 1)
		word_indices = [word_indices ; string_index];
	end


    % =============================================================


    % Print to screen, ensuring that the output lines are not too long
    if (l + length(str) + 1) > 78
        fprintf('\n');
        l = 0;
    end
    fprintf('%s ', str);
    l = l + length(str) + 1;

% Print footer
