Write a program to input a sentence and convert it into uppercase and count and display the total number of words starting with a letter 'A'.
Example:
Sample Input: ADVANCEMENT AND APPLICATION OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY ARE EVER CHANGING.
Sample Output: Total number of words starting with letter 'A' = 4
Answer
import java.util.Scanner;
public class WordsWithLetterA
{
public static void main(String args[]) {
Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Enter a string: ");
String str = in.nextLine();
str = " " + str; //Add space in the begining of str
int c = 0;
int len = str.length();
str = str.toUpperCase();
for (int i = 0; i < len - 1; i++) {
if (str.charAt(i) == ' ' && str.charAt(i + 1) == 'A')
c++;
}
System.out.println("Total number of words starting with letter 'A' = " + c);
}
}Output
