import java.io.*;
public class StringModify { public static void main(String[] args) { try { BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(newInputStreamReader(System.in)); String s1 = ""; int vCount = 0, cCount = 0; System.out.println("Enter a phrase, sentence, or paragraph:"); s1 = in.readLine(); System.out.println(" " + s1.toUpperCase()); System.out.println(s1.toLowerCase()); for(int i = 0; i < s1.length(); i++) { if(Character.isLetter(s1.charAt(i))) { if(Character.toUpperCase(s1.charAt(i)) == 'A' ||Character.toUpperCase(s1.charAt(i)) == 'E' ||Character.toUpperCase(s1.charAt(i)) == 'I' || Character.toUpperCase(s1.charAt(i)) == 'O' ||Character.toUpperCase(s1.charAt(i)) == 'U') { vCount++; } else cCount++; } } System.out.println(" Number of vowels: " + vCount); System.out.println("Number of consonants: " + cCount); for(int i = s1.length()-1; i >= 0; i--) System.out.print(s1.charAt(i)); } catch(Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } } import java.io.*;
