Design a program to take a sentence as an input, and then encode it into Pig Latin.
A Pig Latin is an encrypted word in English, generated by placing the first letter of each word at the end, and then adding "ay" to the end.
Examples:
Input: s = "nevermind youve got them"
Output: "evermindnay ouveyay otgay hemtay"Input: s = "sally knows best"
Output: "allysay nowskay estbay"
Approach: The problem can be solved by traversing the sentence and making the changes word by word, as follows:
- Find the index of the first letter of the word.
- Create a Pig Latin by appending the following these steps:
- Append the first letter at the end of the substring of the word.
- Add "ay" after appending the first letter.
- Continue the above steps till the last word in the string.
Below is the java program to implement the approach:
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
string pigLatinSentence(string s){
string ans = "";
for (int i = 0; i < s.length(); i++) {
int j = i;
if (i >= s.length())
break;
while (i < s.length() && s[i] != ' ')
i++;
if (ans.length() == 0) {
ans.append(s.substr(j + 1, i - j - 1) + s[j] + "ay");
}
else {
ans.append(" " + s.substr(j + 1, i - j - 1) + s[j] + "ay");
}
}
return ans;
}
// Driver code
int main() {
string s = "sally knows best";
cout << (pigLatinSentence(s));
return 0;
}

for (int i = 0; i < s.length(); i++) {
int j = i;
if (i >= s.length())
break;
while (i < s.length() && s.charAt(i) != ' ')
i++;
if (ans.isEmpty()) {
ans = ans.concat(
s.substring(j + 1, i)
+ s.charAt(j) + "ay");
}
else {
ans = ans.concat(
" " + s.substring(j + 1, i)
+ s.charAt(j) + "ay");
}
}
return ans;

i += 1;
return ans;
