Assign the size of userInput to stringSize. Ex: if userInput is "Hello", output is:
Size of userInput: 5
import
java.util.Scanner;
public class
StringSize {
public static void
main (
String
[] args) {
Scanner scnr
=
new
Scanner(
System
.in);
String
userInput;
int
stringSize;
userInput
=
scnr.nextLine();
stringSize
=
userInput.length();
System
.out.println(
"Size of userInput: "
+
stringSize);
return
;
}
}

3.10.2: Looking for characters.
Write an expression to detect that the first character of userInput matches
firstLetter.
import
java.util.Scanner;
public class
CharMatching {
public static void
main (
String
[] args) {
Scanner scnr
=
new
Scanner(
System
.in);
String
userInput;
char
firstLetter;
userInput
=
scnr.nextLine();
firstLetter
=
scnr.nextLine().charAt(
0
);
if
(firstLetter
==
userInput.charAt(
0
)) {
System
.out.println(
"Found match: "
+
firstLetter);
}
else
{
System
.out.println(
"No match: "
+
firstLetter);
}
return
