Computer Applications
Write a program to input a sentence. Create a new sentence by replacing each consonant with the previous letter. If the previous letter is a vowel then replace it with the next letter (i.e., if the letter is B then replace it with C as the previous letter of B is A). Other characters must remain the same. Display the new sentence.
Sample Input : ICC WORLD CUP
Sample Output : IBB VOQKC BUQ
Answer
import java.util.Scanner;
public class KboatReplaceLetters
{
public static void main(String args[]) {
Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Enter a sentence: ");
String str = in.nextLine();
int len = str.length();
String newStr = "";
for (int i = 0; i < len; i++) {
char ch = str.charAt(i);
char chUp = Character.toUpperCase(ch);
if (chUp == 'A'
|| chUp == 'E'
|| chUp == 'I'
|| chUp == 'O'
|| chUp == 'U') {
newStr = newStr + ch;
}
else {
char prevChar = (char)(ch - 1);
char prevCharUp = Character.toUpperCase(prevChar);
if (prevCharUp == 'A'
|| prevCharUp == 'E'
|| prevCharUp == 'I'
|| prevCharUp == 'O'
|| prevCharUp == 'U') {
newStr = newStr + (char)(ch + 1);
}
else {
newStr = newStr + prevChar;
}
}
}
System.out.println(newStr);
}
}

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 = 1Sample Output: A Happy Word
