Question

Input a list of names from the user and display only those names which are starting with ‘A’.

Answer 1

Answer:

1. Write a program to input a list of names (strings) from the user and store them

in an ArrayList. The input can be terminated by entering the empty string or

by

entering the string “quit”.

2. Add further functionality to your program so that it searches the ArrayList to

find the first string and the last string according to dictionary ordering and

then prints out these strings (names). Do this exercise without sorting the

names in the ArrayList. For example, if the list contains the following names:

Charles Darwin

Albert Einstein

Issac Newton

Tony Hoare

Grace Hopper

Edgar Dijkstra

Ada Lovelace

Charles Babbage

Stephen Hawking

Your program should output:

The first name in the list in alphabetical order is: Ada Lovelace

The last name in the list in alphabetical order is: Tony Hoare

3. Add to your program so that after completing question 2, it sorts the ArrayList

to put all strings (names) in (alphabetical) order and prints them all out in

order.
