Computer Science question (code given) Please help a newbie?

Hello, I have a question, I was asked to implement a method named codename that asks user to enter their last name

method print first letter

between letter
and last letter

This is my code, it works:



public class codename
{
private String names;
private char first;
private String middle;
private char last;

public codename(String n, char f, String m, char l){

names=n;
char first=f;
middle=m;
char last=l;

first=names.charAt(0);
middle=names.substring(1, names.length()-1);
last=names.charAt(names.length()-1);
}}



import java.util.Scanner;

public class RunMyMethods
{
public static void main (String[] args){
String names = null;

Scanner scan=new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Please Enter your last name: ");

names=scan.next();




System.out.println();
System.out.println("first letter is: " + names.charAt(0));
System.out.println("between letters are: " + names.substring(1, names.length()-1));
System.out.println("last letter is: " + names.charAt(names.length()-1));
}

}


I know I shouldn't have make my class codename, but then where is codename supposed to be, I suspect it should be in place of "names". Please let me know if I am right. I just started programming yesterday.

thanks

if the codename class should be implemented then you can use codename class and codename constructor to print the strings by suppling the input by creating an object to the codename class

or

simply u can use the above code.
