Creating a Simple, Beginner-Level Vowel Counter

Hello!

Thank you to all that assisted me with my question last week! I appreciate it so much.

But I hit another wall this week, and I am looking for some help,

What I need to do is create a program that outputs the number of vowels, consonants, words, spaces, and special characters in a given sentence. I need to implement it with a function as well.

So I was thinking I would use a void function with an argument.

I am doing one part at a time, in this case, the vowel counter.

Here is my calling program:

Code :

---

public class JNumberOfItems
{
    public static void main(String[] Theory)
    {
 
        JStringSource MyStringSource = new JStringSource();
 
 
        MyStringSource.Vowels("The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog");
 
    }
}

---

and here is my function:

Code :

---

public class JStringSource
{
    void Vowels(String SentenceOne )
    {
 
    }
 
 
}

---

Now I know what you're thinking - there's nothing there! Well that is because I am truly at a loss as to what steps I should be taking now. I want to use a loop, if or switch command, but I don't really know where to go.

I researched this online left and right and everything I am finding has do do with the scanner class and keyboard imputs and more complicated stuff than what I am looking for.

Thank you for your patience and your help!

Just an update - I figured out how to find the number of vowels, consonants, spaces, words, and special characters.

I have one more question regarding math that I will post in a separate forum.
