Wordgame

Java Programming HELP!!?

September 21st, 2009 | by admin |

Write a program that plays a word game with the user. The program should ask the user to enter the following:

•His or her name
•His or her age
•The name of the city
•The name of the college
•A profession
•A type of animal
•A pet’s name

After the user has entered these items, the program should display the following story, inserting the user’s input into the appropriate locations:

There once was a person named NAME who lived in CITY. At
the age of AGE, NAME went to college at COLLEGE. NAME
graduated and went to work as a PROFESSION. Then, NAME
adopted a(n) ANIMAL named PETNAME. They both lived
happily ever after!

so far I have written this but I am stocked here:

public class WordGame
{

public static void main(String[] args)
{

String name;
name= JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter your name");

String age;
age= JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter your age");

String city;
city= JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter the name of a city");

String college;
college= JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter the name of a college");

String profession;
profession= JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter profession");

String animal;
animal= JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter a type of animal");

String pet;
pet= JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter a pet name");

Please help me finished this program and check what I have done, maybe I have a few errors.
Thanks in advance!!!!
