Resource: Week 1 Analyze Assignment Zip File

Analyzing Java™ code--that is, reading and predicting the outcome of Java™ code, given one or more inputs--is an essential skill. The ability to analyze code allows you to learn from example code and tutorials. It also allows you to write and debug your own Java™ code.

For this assignment, you will be analyzing the Java™ code in the linked zip file. 

Carefully read through the code line by line, then answer the following questions in a Microsoft® Word document:

1. What syntax signals a Java™ comment? (In other words, what symbol(s) tell the Java™ compiler not to process certain text?)
2. Type the line(s) of code that accept user input.
3. Type the line(s) of code that process user input.
4. Type the line(s) of code that produce output.
5. Type the result this program would produce if a user, when prompted, responded by typing "everyone" and then hit Enter.
6. Type the result this program would produce if a user, when prompted, responded by typing in "Mickey Mouse" and hit Enter.
7. Type the result this program would produce if a user, when prompted, responded by typing "Benjamin Franklin" and hit Enter.

Resource: Week 1 Coding Assignment Zip File (starter code for this assignment that includes placeholders)

For this assignment, you will apply what you learned in analyzing a simple Java™ program by writing your own Java™ program. The Java™ program you write should do the following:

• Display a prompt on the console asking the user to type in his or her first name
• Construct the greeting string "Hello, nameEntered!"
• Display the constructed greeting on the console

Complete this assignment by doing the following:

1. Download and unzip the linked zip file.
2. Add comments to the code by typing your name and the date in the multi-line comment header.
3. Replace the following lines with Java™ code as directed in the file:

• LINE 1
• LINE 2
• LINE 3
• LINE 4

1. Comment each line of code you add to explain what you intend the code to do.
2. Test and modify your Java™ program until it runs without errors and produces the results as described above.
