Averager Screencast
Start by watching the screencasts on making the Averager program. I strongly suggest creating the code in Eclipse as you follow along with the video. There will be some useful code in that program for you to use, as you work on this assignment.

Code Clarifications
In screencast #2, I don’t think it was my finest demonstration on how to get BufferedReader running. Therefore, here is some code reference for you:
To create it:
BufferedReader reader;
reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
Check your imports at the top of the file. They should include:
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
Your Assignment
In case you’ve never heard of MadLibs, your program should ask the user for a series of inputs. Give the user the type of input requested: adjective/noun/verb/etc.
The program will then fill in those inputs into a larger block of text, and hopefully it makes a block of text that is funny to read.
Requirements
At least 10 inputs
Make at least 2 subs / functions that saves you copying & pasting repeated code. See follow up video.
Reminder: if you want it to just do some steps but not return anything, use the keyword void.
Fill the user’s inputs into a larger block of text.
Grab a recognizable block of text to insert into:
Song lyrics / Famous documents / Speeches / etc.
Make a decision based on one of the words that the user inputs. Examples:
a/an, depending on if the word begins with a vowel.
a bird vs. an eagle
Using the correct possessive, depending on if the word ends with an S.
Chris’ bird vs. Jim’s bird
Tip: if you have a String text use:
text.charAt(0)
Hand-In
The only file you need to hand-in to teams is the MadLibs.java file. Make sure it has your name in the @author comment above public class. Example:
/**
* @author Mr. Hapke
*/
public class MadLibs {
