Array & String in java

[Anonymous]

Hi every one,
I am just a bigener in the field of java and having a problem that I am trying to solve the following:
1.Check if the first word starts with 'a'
2.Check if the first word starts with a vowel
3.Find the number of words in the String(given in question) starting with a vowel
4.After finding the number of words which starts with a vowel, retrive the found words and store them in an array and print
The first three I have successfully solved which show in the following code but the fourth one I tried my best but failed
I would request to please explain me to how to solve this

class Waris2{
 public static void main(String[]arga){
  String text ="A Leader likes amitabh.Akbar loves julia roberts. Pakistan is one of most important country in south east asia region";
  //1. Check if the first word starts with 'a'
  text=text.toLowerCase();
  System.out.println(text);
    if(text.charAt(0)=='a'){
     System.out.println("Yes it is");
    }
    //2. Check if the first word starts with a vowel  
     if(text.charAt(0)=='a'| |text.charAt(0)=='e'| |text.charAt(0)=='i'| |
        text.charAt(0)=='o'| |text.charAt(0)=='u'){
       System.out.println("It is vowel");
      }
      System.out.println(text.length());
      //3. Find the number of words in the String(given in question) starting with a vowel
      int count = 0;
      for(int i=0; i < text.length(); i++){
      if(text.charAt(i)==' ' && (text.charAt(i+1)=='a'| |text.charAt(i+1)=='e'| |
        text.charAt(i+1)=='i'| |text.charAt(i+1)=='o'| |text.charAt(i+1)=='u'))
      count++;
      //System.out.println(count);
       }
     //4. After finding the number of words which starts with a vowel, retrive the found words and store them in an array and print 
     String []ss = new String[count];
     for(int k = 0; k < ss.length ; k++){
      System.out.println("ss[" + k + "]" + ss[k]);
     }
} 
}

The code you posted got slightly mangled because the less than, and or greater than, sign in the for loops is read as html. You need to put a space before and after those symbols to not have them interpreted (I think).
For the fourth problem - in the for loop for the third problem you will want to store the words, that have a vowel, in an array or vector. Then go back through that array or vector to print the words out. (Or you can print them out as you find them.)
