Method for returning count of all vowels in a string
public static int count_vowels (String str)
{
//declare variable count
int count = 0;
//execute for loop
for (int i=0; i<str.length(); i++)
{
//if condition
if(str.charAt(i)=='a' || str.charAt(i)=='e' || str.charAt(i)=='i' || str.charAt(i)=='o' || str...

Write an application that reads a five-letter word from the user and produces every possible three-letter string that can be derived from the letters of that word. For example, the three-letter words produced from the word “bathe” include “ate,” “bat,” “bet,” “tab,” “hat,” “the” and “tea.”
2. Write a method isPalidrome(String arg) that determines if a String is palindrome or not.
Palindrome is when a String remains the same after reversing. The method should return boolean
type.
For example: MADAM is palindrome.
public 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.

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?
