Question:

Write a method called printDuplicates that takes as a parameter a Scanner containing a series of lines. Your method should examine each line looking for consecutive occurrences of the same token on the same line and print each duplicated token, along with the number of times that it appears consecutively. Nonrepeated tokens are not printed. You may ignore the case of repetition across multiple lines (such as if a line ends with a given token and the next line starts with the same token). You may assume that each line of the file contains at least 1 token of input. For example, consider the following input:

hello how how are you you you you

I I I am Jack’s Jack’s smirking smirking smirking smirking revenge

bow wow wow yippee yippee yo yippee yippee yay yay yay

one fish two fish red fish blue fish

It’s the Muppet Show, wakka wakka wakka

Your method should produce the following output:

how*2 you*4

I*3 Jack's*2 smirking*4

wow*2 yippee*2 yippee*2 yay*3

wakka*3
