Question

JAVA

Write a program that will compare two names. The program prompts the user to enter two names for a comparison. If the names are same, the program states that. If the names are different, the program converts both names to UPPERCASE, and compares then again. If they are equal, the programs displays a message stating that names are equal if CASE is ignored. Otherwise, the program prints names with a message that names are not equal.  Check also if there is a way to compare strings while ignoring case (upper or lower)

Answer 1

import java.util.*;
public class Main {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
       Scanner s = new Scanner(System.in);
       System.out.println("Enter two names");
       String name1 = s.nextLine(); // gets name1
       String name2 = s.nextLine(); // gets name2
       if(name1.equals(name2)) { // checks whether the names are same
       System.out.println("Names are same");
       }else if(name1.toUpperCase().equals(name2.toUpperCase())){ // conerts into uppercase and checks
       System.out.println("Names are same");
       }else if(name1.equalsIgnoreCase(name2)){ // ignores the case and checks
       System.out.println("Names are same");
       }else{ // gets executed if names are not same
       System.out.println("The names "+name1+" and "+name2+" are different");
       }
   }
}
