Explanation / Answer

//header files
import java.util.Random;
public class ManyGreetings{  
//main function
   public static void main(String[] args){
       //initializing necessary variables and their values
       int value;
      
       Random rand = new Random();
       int n = rand.nextInt(500) + 5;//generates random

       for(int i =1; i<= n; i++)
       {
           value = i % 10;
           if(value == 1 && i%11!=1){
           System.out.println(i+"st greeting");//printing the output
           }
           else if(value == 2 && i%11!=2)
           {
               System.out.println(i+"nd greeting");//printing the output
           }
           else if(value == 3 && i%11!=3)
           {
               System.out.println(i+"rd greeting");//printing the output
           }
           else
           {
               System.out.println(i+"th greeting");//printing the output
           }
