Question

Write a program (name it firstMiddleLast _yourInitials.java (yourInitials represents your initials) that will:

1. Ask the user (include appropriate dialog) to enter their:

first name
middle name
last name

save each of the above as a String variable as follows:

firstName
middleName
lastName

2. Print to the screen the number of characters in each of the names (first, middle and last)

3. Print to the screen total number of characters in all three names. Include appropriate dialog in your output.

4. Print to the screen the initials of the person (first letter of the first, middle and last names) in all capitals with no space or lines between them. For example JFK.

5. Print to the screen the total of the ASCII values of the initials printed in #4 above. For example the initials JFK would sum to 219 (74 + 70 + 75). Remember that the ASCII values are as follows and to find the ASCII value of a single character by casting the character to an int by using (int).

A	65	N	78
B	66	O	79
C	67	P	80
D	68	Q	81
E	69	R	82
F	70	S	83
G	71	T	84
H	72	U	85
I	73	V	86
J	74	W	87
K	75	X	88
L	76	Y	89
M	77	Z	90
