Chapter 8.4, Problem 8.20CP
Program Plan Intro
String class:
- The “String” class provides a number of methods that examines for a string inside of a string.
- The term “substring” refers to a string that denotes another string’s part.
- The “startsWith” method would determine whether calling string of object begins with a specific substring.
- The method returns “true” if string begins with specified substring, it returns “false” otherwise.
- The “endsWith” method would determine whether calling string would end with a specified substring.
- The method returns “true” if string ends with specified substring, it returns “false” otherwise.
- The “regionMatches” method would determine whether specified regions for two strings match.
- The first argument of this method can be “true” or “false” that indicates whether a case-insensitive comparison could be performed.
StringBuilder class:
- The “StringBuilder” class is same as “String” class except that contents of “StringBuilder” objects could be changed.
- It provides several methods that “String” class does not have.
- The “append” method accepts an argument that might be a primitive data type.
- It appends a string representation to contents of calling object.
- The “insert” method accepts two arguments, an integer that specifies position in string of calling object as well as value to be inserted.
- The “replace” method replaces the occurrences of one character with another character.
- The “toString” method converts a “StringBuilder” object in to a regular string.

- Name format: You must use String object and not StringBuffer or StringBuilder. Many documents use a specific format for a person's name. Write a program that take one Line as an input. Example: Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in); System.out.println(“Enter firstName middleName lastName separated by at least one blank, It may have more than one blank separating firstName middleName lastName."); Input sample : Pat Silly Doe || Note these are separated by at least one blank. String line = input.nextLine() Ex: If the input is: Pat Silly Doe the output is: Doe, P.S. If the input has the form: firstName lastName the output is: lastName, firstInitial. Ex: If the input is: Julia Clark the output is: Clark, J. Please submit the .java source file and the sample run in a text file.

- JAVAA7-Write a class with a constructor that accepts a String object as its argument. The class should have a method that returns the number of vowels in the string, and another method that returns the number of consonants in the string. Demonstrate the class in a program by invoking the methods that return the number of vowels and consonants. Print the counts returned.arrow_forwardIf you write this method for a class, Java will automatically call it any time you concatenate an object of the class with a string.a. toStringb. plusStringc. stringConvertd. concatStringarrow_forwardWord Separator Create an application that accepts as input a sentence in which all the words are run together but the first character of each word is uppercase. Convert the sentence to a string in which the words are separated by spaces and only the first word starts with an uppercase letter.

- Button Toggle How can we make a button that toggles a text view (not the button label) between "Howdy Class!" and "You Pressed Me!"? Please write the java onClick function that would be specified in the button onClick property. Do not use string comparison to determine the current state. Also, do not use hard code string values.arrow_forwardUnlike when you create a String, when you create a StringBuilder, you must use the keyword new buffer class nullarrow_forwardAnalyze the code and then correct it.Dim strCity as String = "Miami"Dim strState as Double = "Florida"Dim strLocation as StringstrLoc = strCity + strStatearrow_forward
- Notes: The maximum size of any c-string in this lab is 100 characters and it should be dynamically allocated in the constructor and de-allocated in the destructor. For Visual Studio you need to put the following line as first top line in your source code file: #define _CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS Question 1: The class Person contains the following properties and functions: -Name (c-string), private. -Age (int), private - Address (c-string), private - Constructors (default and non-default) -Getters and Setters -Destructor: to free the memory and print the message "Object with name [PERSON_NAME] is dead" where PERSON_NAME is the person name for the object being disposed. Print function to print the details of the employee.

The Integer.parseInt () method requires a String argument, but fails if the String cannot be converted to an integer.
