A 'Happy Word' is defined as:

Take a word and calculate the word’s value based on position of the letters in English alphabet. On the basis of word’s value, find the sum of the squares of its digits. Repeat the process with the resultant number until the number equals 1 (one). If the number ends with 1 then the word is called a 'Happy Word'.

Write a program to input a word and check whether it a ‘Happy Word’ or not. The program displays a message accordingly.

Sample Input: VAT
Place value of V = 22, A= 1, T = 20
[Hint: A = 1, B = 2, ----------, Z = 26]

Solution:
22120 ⇒ 22 + 22 + 12 + 22 + 02 = 13
           ⇒ 12 + 32 = 10
           ⇒ 12 + 02 = 1

Sample Output: A Happy Word

        }
        
        long wordValue = Long.parseLong(wordValueStr);
        boolean isHappy = isHappyNumber(wordValue);
