text: Minimize cost to replace all the vowels of a given String by a single vowel | C # program for the above approach ; Function that return true if the given character is a vowel ; Function to return the minimum cost to convert all the vowels of a string to a single one ; Stores count of respective vowels ; Iterate through the string ; If a vowel is encountered ; Calculate the cost ; Return the minimum cost ; Driver code
