Write a JAVA program that reads in a string from standard input and determines the following:

- How many vowels are in the string (FOR THE PURPOSE OF THIS PROGRAM 'Y' is NOT considered a vowel)?

- How many upper case characters are in the string?

- How many digits are in the string?

- How many white space characters are in the string?

- Modify the program to indicate which vowel occurs the most. In the case of a tie, only output the vowel which comes first alphabetically. NOTE: if there are no vowels then output "no vowels"

Example input :

This String has vowels and 12345 digits.

Example output:

vowels = 8

upper = 2

digits = 5

whitespace = 6

vowel i occurs the most = 4

- Modify the program to output a list of all consecutively repeated characters. That is any character that repeats consecutively in the string.

Example input:

Some people raise raccoons for their pelts. A raccoon's home is called a nook. The person who cleans and tidies up the raccoonnooks is called the raccoonnookkeeper. Real word!

Example output:

vowels = 59

upper = 4

digits = 0

whitespace = 28

vowel o occurs the most = 21

repeated characters: c o c o l o c o n o l c o n o k e

NOTE: if there are no repeating characters then output "no repeating characters"

NOTE: by characters I mean ALPHABETIC characters, A - Z; not digits, not whitespace, not punctuation

Here's an example of what your output should look like for the A version if the input has NONE of the characters you are looking for.

vowels = 0

upper = 0

digits = 0

whitespace = 0

no vowels

no repeating characters
