Pig Latin
Implement a program that translates from English to Pig Latin
Pig Latin is a made-up children's language that's intended to be confusing. It obeys a few simple rules (below), but when it's spoken quickly it's really difficult for non-children (and non-native speakers) to understand.
- Rule 1: If a word begins with a vowel sound, add an "ay" sound to the end of the word.
- Rule 2: If a word begins with a consonant sound, move it to the end of the word, and then add an "ay" sound to the end of the word.
There are a few more rules for edge cases, and there are regional variants too.
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pig_latin for more details.
To run the tests simply run the command go test
in the exercise directory.
If the test suite contains benchmarks, you can run these with the -bench
flag:
go test -bench .
For more detailed info about the Go track see the help page.
