This is an updated version of my previous Java program that asks the user for a sentence and then separates the words and then converts the sentence into Pig Latin. My previous program was working, but there was some tweeking that needed to be done which I did after getting positive feedback. Apparently, my loop in the separateWords function was checking for capital letters twice or so. I have included the instructions for the assignment for reference and the code for peer edit. Thank you.

1. The program will accept a string as input in which all of the words are run together, but the first character of each word is uppercase. Convert the string to a string in which the words are separated by spaces and only the first word starts with an uppercase letter. For example, the string "StopAndSmellTheRose" would be converted to "Stop and smell the roses"

2. Then the program will convert each word in the result string of task 1 into "Pig Latin". In one version of Pig Latin, you convert a word by removing the first letter, placing that letter at the end of the word, and then appending "ay" to the word.

For example, for the result string "Stop and smell the roses" in task 1, the Pig Latin string should be "topSay ndaay mellsay hetay osesray"

Requirements:

• Your program should have 3 methods: a main method, a method for task 1, and a method for task2

• the method for task 1 should return the result string of task1
• the method for task 2 should display the Pig Latin string
