Write the program in Java:

Your assignment is to write a program that reads the attached text file and writes out a separate text file (using your first initial and last name as the filename).

The first step to a career in technology is curiosity.
The next step is passion and drive.
The third step is accountability and humility - willingness to admit

A final step is knowing how to communicate. Maybe you are the smartest person in the room,
but who cares if you cannot communicate your knowledge to others?
