Java Sandwich


Collapse Content

Time for some more challenging problems!

A "Java Sandwich" is a String that contains the word "Java" near the middle of it. "Near" means that the number of characters to the right and left differ by at most 2 characters.

For example, "Watch the Java master code" is a Java sandwich, since it contains 10 characters to the left and 12 characters to the right.

Challenge

Create a program that prints true if a sentence is a "Java Sandwich" and false otherwise.

    It shouldn't make a difference in this challenge, but a space is a character just like any other.

    Yes that's correct, you need to count the spaces. (I thought there were the same number of spaces on each side, but I see that's not the case.)
