Vowel Counter

The Code

The code for the fourth class of Java is as follows:

package vowelcounter;

import java.util.Scanner;

public class VowelCounter {

  public static void main(String[] args) {

    /*
      Program to count the vowels and consonants in a word.
      Students will use this and incorporate checks for other characters.
    */
    int x = 0 ;
    int no_vowels = 0, no_consonants = 0;
    String fullname = " ";
    Scanner o = new Scanner(System.in);
    System.out.println("Type your name ==>");
    fullname = o.nextLine().toUpperCase();
    // Use a do...while to loop through the word
    do {
      Character check = fullname.charAt(x);

      // if ...else construct to evaluate letter

      if (check == 'A') {
        no_vowels++;
      }else if (check == 'E') {
        no_vowels++;
      } 
      else if (check == 'I') {
        no_vowels++;
      } 
      else if (check == 'O') {
        no_vowels++;
      } 
      else if (check == 'U') {
        no_vowels++;
      } 
      else {
        no_consonants++; //Assuming for now, only letters are inserted
                          // so if not a vowel, letter must be a consonant   
      }

      x++;

    } while (x< fullname.length());
    System.out.println("Your name contains ");
    System.out.println(no_vowels+" vowels and " +no_consonants+ " consonants");
    
  } // End of main
    
} // End of class
