Your goal is to get a single keystroke from the user and report whether the keystroke is:
- a lowercase alphabetic character ('a' through 'z')
- an uppercase alphabetic character ('A' through 'Z')
- a numeric digit ('0' through '9')
- some other character
Write a program that prompts the user to enter a single character: you will capture that input in a variable of type char. Then, using a sequence of if ‐ else if ‐ else statements, report back to the user what type of character they entered, as above.
Recall that the char data type is really just a "small number" type, a char can store numbers from ‐128 to +127 (or from 0 to 256, depending on how you use it). Each number from 0 to 127 is mapped to a character on your keyboard, grouped more or less as you would expect:
- Characters from '0' to '9' in sequence come first (i.e. lower number mappings).
- Characters from 'A' to 'Z' in sequence are in the middle.
- Characters from 'a' to 'z' in sequence are the higher number mappings.
- The punctuation marks and other symbols are scattered throughout the ascii table.
- You entered a lowercase letter.
- You entered an uppercase letter.
- You entered a numeric digit.
- You entered an unknown character type.
