Chapter 4, Problem 11E

Explanation of Solution

Program:

//define the static function

public static void longestName(Scanner console, int names) {

    //print statement

    System.out.print("name #1? ");

    //The user input is stored in "longest"

    String longest = console.next();

    //declare and initialize the variables

    int count = 1;

    //loop initialized to determine the maximum value

    for (int i = 2; i <= names; i++) {

        //print statement

        System.out.print("name #" + i + "? ");

        //The user input is stored in "name"

        String name = console.next();

        //condition initialized to check whether the length of name is longest or not

        if (name.length() == longest.length()) {

            //increment the value

            count++;

        }

        //condition initialized to check whether the value of next is greater than the length of longest or not

        if (name.length() > longest...
