Write a programme in java to accept a month name and print the month number.

Create a string array by populating the month name. Now accept the month name from user and match it to the array. If match it then print the (index+1) as a month number.

public class MonthNameToNumber
{
    public static void main(String []args)
    {
        String []months={"January","Februry","March","April","May","June","July","August","September","October","November","December"};
        Scanner sc=new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.print("Enter month name : ");
        String mon=sc.next();
        for(int i=0;i<months.length;i++)
        {
            if(mon.toLowerCase().equals(months[i].toLowerCase()))
            {
                System.out.println("Your Month number is " + (i+1));
                break;
            }
        }
    }
}
