Creating the piglatin version of a string

[mclam]

/*
For this program you will be working with strings. You are to ask
the user to input a string. Then, make (and print out) the "pig
latin like" version of this string by using the following rule:

1) words beginning with a vowel (A, E, I, O, U) , have the word "yo"
appended to the word
2) words beginning with a consonant, move the first character to the
end of the word and append "oy"

For example, if the user inputs:

mary had a little lamb

You should output:

arymoy adhoy ayo ittleloy ambloy

This program is due Wednesday, the 15th of October.

HINT: The indexOf() and substring() methods can be used to extract
each word in the string. Now with a particular word, we can
use charAt to get the first character and check if it's a
vowel. If needed, we can use substring() again to get the
string consisting of the 2nd to the last character and "tack
on" the first character plus "oy".

I read in your post that your assignment was due a few days ago, but I thought I might give you a link to a program that reminds me very much of your assignment:

PigLatin.java
PigLatinTranslator.java

You can find these java classes and such to study if you go to the following site:

http://duke.csc.villanova.edu/jss1/bookResources/examples.jsp

They are stored in the "Chapter 4" example bundle.

Hello Anil
Your solution comes 8 years too late for the OP, and anyway we don't do peole's homework for them, we try to teach them to do it for themselves.
