Question

Magic 8 Ball is a toy developed in the 1950s and used for fortune-telling or advice-seeking. A player asks or thinks of a yes-or-no question such as, Will I be rich someday? The player then turns the ball over to see one of 20 randomly chosen responses, for example, It is certain or Very doubtful. Create a program that simulates the toy by allowing a user to type a question; the user then receives one of 20 random responses. Allow the user to keep asking questions until the user types in a sentinel value. Save the program as Magic8Ball.java.

import java.util.Random;

public class Magic8Ball

Random r = new Random();

int choice = 1 + r.nextInt(20);
