Problem #1

Write a program that prompts the user for her first and last name, and outputs a computer account made of the first initial of her first name, plus her last name, all in lowercase.

Example

    First name? Allie
    Last name? BABA
    Your computer account name is: ababa 

• Submit your program to HW 4 PB 1 on Moodle.

Problem #2

Write a program that prompts the user for her first and last name, and outputs a computer account made of the first initial of her first name, plus her last name, all in lowercase. But now we want the computer account to be exactly 8 characters long. If the user names are too short, your program will pad the character 'z'.

Example

    First name? Allie 
    Last name? BABA 
    Your computer account name is: ababazzz 

    First name? Al 
    Last name? Gus 
    Your computer account name is:aguszzzz 

    First name? Alma 
    Last name? Verylongname 
    Your computer account name is: averylon 

• Submit your program to HW 4 PB 2 on Moodle.

Problem #3

Write a program that prompts the user for her first and last name, and outputs a computer account made of the first initial of her first name, plus her last name, all in lowercase. We want the computer account to be exactly 8 characters long, but this time it is padded with the current year (2015 for us).

Example

    First name? Allie 
    Last name? BABA 
    Your computer account name is: ababa201 

    First name? Al 
    Last name? Gus 
    Your computer account name is:agus2015 

    First name? Alma 
    Last name? Verylongname 
    Your computer account name is: averylon 

• Submit your program to HW 4 PB 3 on Moodle.
