For any given character, we need to check if it is a vowel or a consonant. As we know, vowels are ‘a’, ‘e’, ‘i’, ‘o’, ‘u’ and all the other characters (i.e. ‘b’, ‘c’, ‘d’, ‘f’ …..) are consonants.
Examples:
Input : char = 'r' Output : Consonant Input : char = 'e' Output : Vowel
Here, in the below implementation we will check if the stated character corresponds to any of the five vowels. And if it matches, “Vowel” is printed, else “Consonant” is printed.
Example 1:
Java
// java program to check whether input// character is a vowel or consonant import java.io.*; public class geek { // Function to find whether an input // character is vowel or not static void Vowel_Or_Consonant(char y) { if (y == 'a' || y == 'e' || y == 'i' || y == 'o' || y == 'u') System.out.println("It is a Vowel."); else System.out.println("It is a Consonant."); } // The Driver code static public void main(String[] args) { Vowel_Or_Consonant('b'); Vowel_Or_Consonant('u'); }} |
Output
It is a Consonant. It is a Vowel.
Example 2:
- Alteration for capital letters.
Java
// java program to check whether input// character is a vowel or consonant import java.io.*; public class geek { // Function to find whether an input // character is vowel or not static void Vowel_Or_Consonant(char y) { if (y == 'a' || y == 'e' || y == 'i' || y == 'o' || y == 'u' || y == 'A' || y == 'E' || y == 'I' || y == 'O' || y == 'U') System.out.println("It is a Vowel."); else System.out.println("It is a Consonant."); } // The Driver code static public void main(String[] args) { Vowel_Or_Consonant('W'); Vowel_Or_Consonant('I'); }} |
Output
It is a Consonant. It is a Vowel.
Example 3:
Java
// java program to check whether input// character is a vowel or consonant import java.io.*; class GFG { // Function to find whether an input // character is vowel or not static String isVowel(char ch) { // Make the list of vowels String str = "aeiouAEIOU"; return (str.indexOf(ch) != -1) ? "Vowel" : "Consonant"; } // Driver Code public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println("It is a " + isVowel('a')); System.out.println("It is a " + isVowel('x')); }} |
Output
It is a Vowel It is a Consonant
