Write an application named, Lab14.java. This application will do the following:
Write an application named, Lab14.java. This application will do the following:
1. Display an introductory message
2. Choose a random word from the file, wordlist.txt, and display it
3. Disguise the selected word, and display it
4. Ask the user whether to continue, i.e., whether to repeat steps 2, 3, and 4, or quit the application
Once the user chooses to stop the application:
5. Display the total number of vowels hidden
6. Display the total number of consonants hidden
7. Display termination message
The user will be asked whether to continue playing and will indicate that another game is to be played by answering
‘y’ or ‘Y’ in response to the question, “Want to play again?” asked by the program after displaying each chosen word
and its disguised version. If the user’s response is any character other than ‘y’ or ‘Y’, the totals are displayed and then
the application termination message is displayed. See examples below.
About randomly choosing a word from the file, wordlist.txt, found on Canvas under this assignment:
This file contains 33,736 words. You may use this numeric value (33736) as a named constant and use this constant
in generating a random integer. You must use the Random class to do this. Then, read each word from the beginning
of the file until you read the nth word, where n is the random number generated between 1 and 33,736, inclusive. For
example, if the random number is 20,751, your code should read and ignore 20,750 words, then read the word,
nonfat, as the secret word (number 20751). [NOTE: DO NOT USE ARRAYS!]
Disguising a word: Once a word is chosen randomly, the program displays this word and the word’s disguise to the
user. The disguised word MUST contain a dash (‘-‘) in the corresponding position of each consonant in the chosen
word and an equal sign (‘=’) for each vowel. See the example output below. Note: The letter, Y, is considered a
consonant for this application.
