Chapter 5, Problem 1PP
It is a well-known phenomenon that most people are easily able to read a text whose words have two characters flipped, provided the first and last letter of each word are not changed. For example,
I dn’ot gvie a dman for a man taht can olny sepll a wrod one way. (Mrak Taiwn)
Write a method String scramble(String word) that constructs a scrambled version of a given word, randomly flipping two characters other than the first and last one. Then write a program that reads words and prints the scrambled words.

Write a java program with a method that reverses a string
The method must accept one parameter of type String (string to reverse), and returns every second element from the end to the beginning.
For example:
String: thisisstringResult is: g i t s s h
Language: Java
Write a program that reads a sentence from the keyboard. Depending on the last character of the sentence, print the message identifying the sentence as declarative (ends with a period), interrogative (ends with a question mark), exclamatory (end with an exclamation point), or other.
Hint: you can use charAt() method from the String class to extract the last character of the input line. The character of a String str is at str.length()-1 position. For taking a sentence as input use the nextLine() method from the Scanner class. You have to use if/else if selection.
Sample input and output:
Sample 1
Input: How are you?
Output: Interrogative
Sample 2
Input: I am good.
Output: Declarative
Sample 3
Input: That is amazing!
Output: Exclamatory
Sample 4
Input: Although,
Output: Other
Answer:
In java language has three different method
Write the method xyzMiddle().** Given a String str, does "xyz" appear in the* "middle" of the string. To define middle, we'll* say that the number characters to the left and* right of the "xyz" must differ by, at most, one.** Examples:* xyzMiddle("AAxyzBB") returns true* xyzMiddle("AxyzBB") returns true* xyzMiddle("AxyzBBB") returns false** @param str the String to examine.* @return true if xyz is in the "middle" of str.*/// TODO - Write the method xyZMiddle here.
/*** Write the method named repeatSeparator().** Given two String inputs, word and separator,* along with a third int input count, return a* big String consisting of count copies of word,* each separated by separator.** Note: This is a very common algorithm, called the* fencepost algorithm, because just like building a* fence, you need 11 fenceposts to hold up 10 sections* of fence.** Examples:* repeatSeparator("Word", "X", 3) returns "WordXWordXWord"* repeatSeparator("This", "And",…

Then ask the user to input a string of letters and numbers and call the method that swaps lettter pairs to swap the letters as shown in the picture. in the method that swaps digit pairs, it accepts an integer for its parameter and then returns a new integer that has each pair of digits swapped in order. if it is an odd number of digits, leave the leftmost digit in its original place. the method that swaps digit pairs shouldnt use the string class. but for the swap letter pairs, it is similar operation as the swap digit pairs method but accepts a string as a parameter and return the swapped string. it can use string class.arrow_forward
- java: Run length coding is a method to represent a string in a more compact manner. Each character that occurs more than 2 times in a row is represented by the character and a number following it.

Display that number and then display the string that many times. Requirements: Call a method that gets the string from the user. Use recursion to ensure the string has at least 5 characters. Call a method that returns the number of times the letter "s" or "S" appears in the string. This method should use recursion. Call a method that takes the number of times the letter"s" or "S" appeared in the string and display the original string that was obtained from the user that many times using recursion.

Store the new character in the output string** Examples:* shift3("hello") returns "khoor"* shift3("cat") returns "fdw"* shift3("frog") returns "iurj"** @param str the String to start with* @return the rotated String as described herearrow_forwardpublic static String reversevowels (String text) Given a text string, create and return a new string of same length where all vowels have been reversed, and all other characters are kept as they were. For simplicity, in this problem only the characters aeiouAEIOU are considered vowels, and y is never a vowel. For example, given the text string "computer science", this method would return "cempetir sceunco". Furthermore, to make this problem more interesting and the result look more palatable, this method must maintain the capitalization of vowels based on the vowel character that was originally in the position that each new vowel character is moved into. For example, "Ilkka Markus" should become "Ulkka Markis" instead of "ulkka MarkIs". Use the handy utility methods in the Character wrapper class to determine whether some particular character is in upper- or lowercase, and convert a character to upper- or lowercase as needed.arrow_forward
