Question

In.java

Write down a program that asks the user for their full name given in the format first last. The program will do the necessary processing and print the name in a table with 3 columns: Last, First, Initials. Requirements/Specifications...

1. Your program run must be identical with the one shown as an example (both in how it reads the input and it on what it prints). The table must have the top and bottom lines as shown.
2. The columns for Last and First must have exactly 15 spaces each.
3. The data in the columns must be LEFT aligned
4. You can assume that the user gives good input: two words separated by one space.

 as a Sample run 
Please enter your first and last name: Tom Cruise
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|Cruise         |Tom           |T.C.|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Answer 1

Summary-

The input is received by a prompt from the user in the form of Strings using two variables first and last for this purpose.

The output is generated as above as given in the question using the "printf" and "println" Statements.

By using the printf statement, left alignment of 15 spaces is given for the first name and last name in the output.

For the printing of the initials , charAt() statement is used.

Code-

import java.util.*;

public class Bts {

  
   public static void main(String[] args) {
  
   //Declaring variables for first and last names
   String first,last;
  
   //Scanner class to receive the inputs
   Scanner sc=new Scanner(System.in);
  
   //Prompting the user to enter an input
   System.out.printf("Please enter your first and last name: ");
  
   first=sc.next();
  
   last=sc.next();
  
   System.out.println("~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~");
  
   System.out.printf("|");
   System.out.printf("%-15s",last);
   System.out.printf("|");
   System.out.printf("%-15s",first);
   System.out.printf("|");
   System.out.printf(first.charAt(0)+"."+last.charAt(0)+".");
   System.out.printf("|");
  
   System.out.println();
   System.out.println("~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~");
  
   }
  
}

Output-
