Question

Program 2: P0\/\/|\|3D. In the early 80s, hackers used to write in an obfuscated, but mostly readable way called “leet” – short for “elite”. In essence, it was a simple character replacement algorithm, where a single “regular” character was replaced by one or more “leet” characters; numbers remained the same. Here’s one of the most readable versions:

a	4	g	9	m	/\\/\\	s	$	y	‘/
b	B	h	|-|	n	|\\|	t	7	z	Z
c	(	i	1	o	0	u	U
d	D	j	j	p	P	v	\\/
e	3	k	|<	q	Q	w	\\/\\/
f	Ph	l	L	r	R	x	><

Note! You will need to know how to 1) get the length of a string (the number of characters) and 2) access individual characters of the string. See the appendix for more information. You must call your function translateToL337. Note #2: your first task should be to try to print out a single ‘\’ character…

Your task is to design (pseudocode) and implement (source code). For the source code, name your class “A5_2” and put it into a file called “A5_2” (either .java, .cs or .cpp)

Sample run 1:

Enter a string: you have been powned

'/0U |-|4\\/3 B33|\\| P0\\/\\/|\\|3D

Sample run 1:

Enter a string: you have programming skrilz

'/0U |-|4\\/3 PR09R4/\\/\\/\\/\\1|\\|9 $|<R1LZ

In C++ using classes with switch cases.

//Code

using namespace std;

                getline(cin, input);

                strLength = input.length();

                for(i = 0; i < strLength; i ++) {

                                char ch = input.at(i);
