JAVA

For this assignment, I need to write a code that plays a game of Mad Libs with the user. It should take any Text Document as a .txt file, which includes several placeholders such as , , . It is important that the code identifies any placeholder in a text file, indicated by < and >. The user is prompted to enter in a value for the placeholder.

Example: produces output: "Please enter a school subject."

My code needs to:

1) Reprompt the user if the input file cannot be found.

2) No re-prompting occurs for the output file. If it does not already exist, it is created. If it already exists, overwrite its contents.

3) Sometimes a placeholder has multiple words in it, separated by a ( -), such as . As your program discovers a placeholder, it should convert any such hyphens into spaces. Any hyphens that appear outside of a placeholder, such as in the other text of the story, should be retained and not converted into spaces.

4) When prompting the user to fill in a placeholder, give a different prompt depending on whether the placeholder begins with a vowel (a, e, i, o, or u, case-insensitively). If so, prompt for a response using "an". If not, use "a".

5) You must have at least 3 non-trivial methods other than main in your program. It is okay for some println statements and code to be in main, as long as you use good structure and main is a concise summary. Good structure matter for full credit. Repetition of code lines are not acceptable.

6) Each method should have a single purpose, and no one method should do too large a share of the overall task. The main method should not directly perform a large share of the work itself.

I have included a sample output below:
