import java.util.Scanner;

public class CountWords {

  

   public static void main(String[] args) {

      

       Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);

      

       System.out.print("Enter a text: ");

       String text = sc.nextLine();

      

       sc.close();

      

       // breaking text by space

      

       String words[] = text.split("\s+");

      

       // creating count array

       int[] count = new int[100];

      

       int maxLength = 0;

      

       for(int i=0; i<words.length; i++) {

          

           int len = words[i].length();

          

           count[len]++;

          

           if(len > maxLength)

               maxLength = len;
