In this assignment, you will design and code a Java console application that reads in a varying number of course codes, stores them in a Java LinkedList, sorts them, prints out the size of the LinkedList, and prints out the sorted course codes one by one.

Explain your approach you took to complete this assignment and the major decisions you made

The requirements of this application are as follows. The application is to prompt the user to enter 3 sets of course codes (e.g. IT4789) one set at a time on a line by itself. Course codes in a set are separated by spaces. For each set, the application then:

Stores the course code set into a Java LinkedList

Sort the LinkedList

Prints out the size of the LinkedList

Iterate over the sorted course codes of the LinkedList and prints them out one by one

Use these 3 sets of course codes to test your application:

IT4789 IT4782 IT4786 IT4784

IT3345 IT2230

IT2230

Successful completion of this assignment will show, for each of the 3 sets, the size of the LinkedList and correct sort order of its course codes. Your program output should look like this sample output:
