Java program to encodes a word into Piglatin

Write a program that encodes a word into Piglatin. To translate word into a Piglatin word, convert the word into uppercase and then place the first vowel of the original word as the start of the new word along with the remaining alphabets. The alphabets present before the vowel being shifted towards the end followed by “AY”.

Sample 1:

Input : London,

Output : ONDONLAY

Sample 2:

Input : Olympics,

Output : OLYMPICSAY

Solution:

import java.util.*;
class PigLatin
{    
    public static void main(String arr[])
    {
        Scanner sc=new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.println("Enter Any String ");
        String str1=sc.nextLine();        
        String str2="",str3;
        str1=str1.toUpperCase();
        str3=str1;
        for(int a=0;a<str1.length();a++)
        {
            if(str1.charAt(a)=='A'||str1.charAt(a)=='E'||str1.charAt(a)=='I'||str1.charAt(a)=='O'||str1.charAt(a)=='U')
            {
                str2=str1.substring(0,a);
                str3=str1.substring(a,str1.length());
               // System.out.println("Str 2 : "+str2);
               // System.out.println("Str 3 : "+str3);
                break;
            } 
        }
        str1=str3+str2+"AY";
        System.out.println("PigLating Word is : "+str1);
    }
}

Output

Enter Any String

landon

PigLating Word is : ANDONLAY

Enter Any String
