Sometimes a company will use telephone numbers like 757-GET-FOOD to make the numbers easier to remember. On a standard telephone, the alphabetic characters map into the numbers as follows:
A, B, C = 2
D, E, F = 3
G, H, I = 4
J, K, L = 5
M, N, O = 6
P, Q, R, S = 7
T, U, V = 8
W, X, Y, Z = 9
Design a program that asks the user to enter a 10-character phone number as XXX-XXX-XXXX. The program should display the number in digits only.
757-Get-Food should be displayed as 757-438-3663.
(PYTHON)
Many documents use a specific format for a person's name. Write a program in python whose input is:
firstName middleName lastName
and whose output is:
lastName, firstInitial.middleInitial.
Ex: If the input is:
Pat Silly Doe
the output is:
Doe, P.S.
If the input has the form:
firstName lastName
the output is:
lastName, firstInitial.
Ex: If the input is:
Julia Clark
the output is:
Clark, J.

- This is the question - Three-letter acronyms are common in the business world. For example, in Java you use the IDE (Integrated Development Environment) in the JDK (Java Development Kit) to write programs used by the JVM (Java Virtual Machine) that you might send over a LAN (local area network). Programmers even use the acronym TLA to stand for three-letter acronym. Write a program that allows a user to enter three words, and display the appropriate three-letter acronym in all uppercase letters. If the user enters more than three words, ignore the extra words. This is my code. It is acting like I have to enter the words seperarly which is what I don't think I have to do. import java.util.*; public class ThreeLetterAcronym { public static void main(String[] args) { // Write your code here Scanner myObj = new Scanner(System.in); // Create a Scanner object System.out.println("Enter three words:"); String[] str = new String[3]; String m="";…arrow_forwardI wrote this program, but the solution on zybooks didn't let it full credit.

Many companies use telephone numbers like 555-GET-FOOD so the number is easier for their customers to remember. On a standard telephone, the alphabetic letters are mapped to numbers in the following fashion: A, B and C = 2 D, E and F = 3 G, H and I = 4 J, K and L = 5 M, N and O = 6 P, Q, R and S = 7 T, U and V = 8 W, X, Y and Z = 9 Write a program that asks the user to enter a 10-character number in the format XXX-XXX-XXXX. The application should display the telephone number with any alphabetic characters that appeared in the original translated to their numeric equivalent. For example, if the user enters 555-GET-FOOD, the application should display 555-438-3663. After displaying the translated telephone number, ask the user if they’d like to enter another number. If the user enters “y”, run the program again. If not, terminate the program. (10 points)Note: the sentence the program reads SHOULD NOT be hardcoded.
