Array practice 2 - read the code:
Worth 5 hw points
/**
* In the real world, you often are going to have to deal w/ data and often it will not be in the formating you want. One of the most
* common tasks is manipulating that data.
* The exercise today will be an example of that.
* I printed out a long string of all the names in the class, seperated by commas (see below).
* I would like a method that will change that into a string.
*
* In groups of 2, you are going to complete the following exercise.
* It is worth 5 hw points - due tomorrow(as well as last nights work)
*

//Go through the string allNames above and use those names to fill in the array studentNames
//So for example afterwards studentNames[0] would be Kyle Beaudet and so on.
//But you CANT do it manually, that would be insane.
//You will need to use substring and indexOf(int ch, int fromIndex)
// see: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/lang/String.html
//Extra credit goes to the group that does it the most cleverly.
