You are invited to participate in an encryption algorithm competition.

Encryption is a method to change the formation of the message using pre-defined rules.

After encryption, the message becomes secure and illegible.

Develop a program that takes user input as a string sentence and prints its encryption version using the following rules:

  • You must include your ID, name and section number as sample input.
  • The program should also include your ID as a prefix to all input sentences.
  • Each word should be encrypted separately.
  • If a word starts with consonant letter, then that word should be shifted two places in circular way. For example, “trend” become “ndtre”, “brown” become “wnbro”, etc.
  • Also, aftershifting, do append “ay” at the end of the word. So, a word “trend” become “ndtreay”.
  • If a word starts with a vowel letter, then it should be encrypted by simply appending “way”. For example, “end” becomes “endway”.
  • The letter ‘y’ is a treated as a consonant if it appears as the first letter of a word (yard ->rdyaay).
  • As a vowel if it appears at an interior location (at mid or somewhere) take consonants before the first vowel shift to end. Eg: crybaby-> abycrybay
  • Also, “sch” at the beginning should become “sk” at the end. Eg: schooner -> oonerskay
  • Capitalized words should be capitalized after transformation. Eg: Sam -> Amsay A sample input is: “Brown fox jumps a yard.” after encryption “22k-1234 Wnbroay oxfay psjumay away rdyaay.”
