import java.util.Scanner;

System.out.print("Enter word: ");
String word = in.next();

char x = word.charAt(i);

{
piglatin=word.substring(i) + word.substring(0,i) + "AY";

break;
}
}
if(flag == 0)
{
piglatin = word + "AY";
}
System.out.println(word + " in Piglatin format is " + piglatin);
}
}
Enter word: London
