Question:
Write a method called pigLatin that accepts as a parameter a Scanner representing an input file. Your method should, preserving line breaks, print out the input file’s text in a simplified version of Pig Latin, a silly English variant where the first letter of each word is moved to the end. Our rules for translating a word to Pig Latin are as follows:
- If the word starts with a vowel (a, e, i, o, or u), append "yay". For example, "elephant" becomes "elephantyay".
- If the word starts with a consonant, move the consonant to the end, and append "ay" . For example, "welcome" becomes "elcomeway".
You should also convert every word to lowercase. For example, if the input file contains the following text:
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day Thou art more lovely and more temperate For the preceding input, your method should produce the following console output:
hallsay iyay omparecay heetay otay ayay ummer'ssay ayday houtay artyay oremay ovelylay andyay oremay emperatetay
