d. Many companies use telephone numbers like 535-GET-FOOD so the number is easier for their
customers to remember. On a standard teleephone, the alphabetic letters are
mapped to numbers
in the following fashion:
A, B, and C-2 J, K, and L-5 T, U, andV - 8
M, N, and O - 6
D, E, and F-3 W,X, Y, and Z-9
G, H, and I-4 P,Q, R, and S -7
Write a program that asks the user to enter a 10-character telephone number in the format
XXXX. The application should display the telephone number with any alphabctic characters that
XXX-XXX
appeared in the original translated to their nuneric equivalent. For example, if the user enters 555-GET
FOOD, the application should display 555-438-3663. 19 Marks

name is less than three
characters in length, use the enire lirst name.)
