    Unhappy Variable in programming

    Write a program that checks the properness of a given variable name. More specifically, your
    program should specify whether a user-entered variable name is (1) illegal, (2) legal, but uses poor
    style, or (3) good. There are different opinions as to what constitutes good style for a variable name.
    For this program, check for good style using these rules:

     Only use letters and digits.
     Use a lowercase letter for the first character.

    You don’t need to check for an uppercase letter for the first letter in the second word, third word, etc.

    Sample session:

    This program checks the properness of a proposed Java variable name.
    Enter a variable name (q to quit): streetAddress2
    Good!
    Enter a variable name (q to quit): street address2
    Illegal.
    Enter a variable name (q to quit): StreetAddress2
    Legal, but uses poor style.
    Enter a variable name (q to quit): 2ndStreetAddress
    Illegal.
    Enter a variable name (q to quit): street$address$2
    Legal, but uses poor style.
    Enter a variable name (q to quit): q

    Re: Variable in programming

    Hi

    I doubt anyone is going to help you without some effort on your side, post some code where you tried to do this, and we'll go from there.
