Java: How to check the random letters from a-z, out of 10 letters minimum 2 letter should be a vowel
- by kalandar
I am writing a program to validate the following scenarios:
Scenario 1:
I am using the Random class from java.util. The random class will generate 10 letters from a-z and within 10 letter, minimum 2 letters must be a vowels.
Scenario 2:
When the player 1 and player 2 form a word from A-Z, he will score some points. There will be a score for each letter. I have already assigned the values for A-Z. At the end of the game, the system should display a scores for player 1 and player 2. How do i do it?
Please help. I will post my code here.
Thanks a lot.
