Next, calculate the user's rock star name according to the below algorithm:

firstLen = length of firstName

if firstLen > 5 then firstLen = firstLen - 5

lastLen = length of lastName

if lastLen > 6 then lastLen = lastLen - 6

choose title from "Length of First Name" table based on firstLen

choose Instrument from "Length of Last Name" table based on lastLen

firstIntial = first letter of the user's firstName (Hint: call charAt method)

lastChar = last character of the user's lastName (Hint: call both charAt and length methods)

rockStarName = " title " + firstInitial + lastChar + Instrument
