CSCI 1301 – Lab #5 Exercise The goal of this exercise is to familiarize you with String variables and the use of some of the methods of the class String. Write a java program that contains a class called PlayingWithStrings with a main method that performs the following actions: a. Write a declaration of a String variable called bestSwimmer and initialize it “MICHAEL F. WHELPS”. b. Write an assignment statement to replace W in the string bestSwimmer with a capital P using the appropriate String method. c. Write a declaration for a String variable called firstName and initialize it to the substring containing the first 7 characters of the String bestSwimmer (use a string method to obtain the substring). d. Write a declaration for a String variable called lastName and use the appropriate String method to initialize lastName to the string containing the last 6 characters of the String bestSwimmer. e. Write a declaration of a String variable called middleInitial and initialize it to the substring of characters in bestSwimmer with indexes between 8 and 9 using the appropriate String method. f. Write several assignments statements to convert the characters in the string variables firstName and lastName to lowercase. g. Use the appropriate String method to replace the first letter of the firstName and lastName by its corresponding capital letter. h. Write a declaration of a String variable called reversedName and initialize it to the concatenation of lastName, firstName and middleInitial so the name is in the following format: Last Name, First Name MiddleInitial. i. Display the following short biography inserting the variables reversedName, firstName, middleInitial and lastName in the appropriate locations: reversedName –, June 30, 1985, Baltimore, Maryland. firstName middleInitial lastName is an American swimmer. lastName has won 14 career Olympic gold medals, the most by any Olympian. lastName went a perfect 8-for-8 in Beijing, breaking Mark Spitz's single-Games record for gold medals.
