- Write a program that finds word differences between two sentences. The input begins with the first sentence and the following input line is the second sentence. Assume that the two sentences have the same number of words. The program displays word pairs that differ between the two sentences. One pair is displayed per line. Ex: If the input is: Smaller cars get better gas mileage. Tiny cars get great fuel economy then the output is: Smaller Tiny better great gas fuel mileage economy Hint: Store each input line into a list of strings. 461710,3116374.qx3zqy7arrow_forwardProgram 2: Write a program that asks the user for a word or phrase. Check to see if it is a palindrome. A palindrome is a word that is spelled exactly the same forward and backwards such as radar or noon. Your program must also take case into account. If the user types Radar, it must still return that it is a palindrome. Do not worry about palindromes with spaces. You do not need to put any code in static methods, you do not need to worry about try/catch blocks, and you do not need to make the program run more than once. Test values that I will use in class: Noon palindrome tacocat palindrome Hello not a palindrome in javaarrow_forwardWrite a program that asks the user to enter an amount of money in the format of dollars and remaining cents. The program should calculate and print the minimum number of coins (quarters, dimes, nickels and pennies) that are equivalent to the given amount.Hint: In order to find the minimum number of coins, first find the maximum number of quarters that fit in the given amount of money, then find the maximum number of dimes that fit in the remaining amount, and so on. Write a program that prompts for weight in pounds and height in inches, converts the values to metric, and then calculates the BMI.Note: 1 pound is 0.453592 kilograms and 1 inch is 0.0254 meters.arrow_forward
- Write a program that prompts the user for a month name and a month day. Your program will examine the month and the day to determine the season. Your program will then display the date's season (Winter, Spring, Summer or Autumn). The input is a string to represent the month and an int to represent the day. See chart below for the range of dates within seasons. Ex: If the input is: April 11 the output is: Spring The dates for each season in the northern hemisphere are:Spring: March 20 - June 20Summer: June 21 - September 21Autumn: September 22 - December 20Winter: December 21 - March 19arrow_forwardWrite a program that displays a table of pounds and equivalent weights in kilograms. You can find the conversion factor online if necessary. Store this factor in a properly named constant. Allow the user to specify the range of pounds for the table by prompting for the start, stop, and step values for the pounds column. Display the pounds accurate to two decimal places centered in a column 10 characters wide. The kilometers should display accurate to three decimal places and right-aligned in a column 12 characters wide (see page 75-78). Column headings should be displayed with the same alignments.
