Month Name

Write a function. It will return the name of a month of the year, given the month number, according to the table below. Make sure you do not put any input or output statements in the function; the month number will be passed in and the string containing the name will be returned.

Number	Month
1	January
2	February
3	March
4	April
5	May
6	June
7	July
8	August
9	September
10	October
11	November
12	December
anything else	error

The function must be called month_name(), and must have one parameter (an integer), and return a String.

And finally, here's some starter code.

• MonthName.java

public static void main( String[] args )

    System.out.println( "Month 1: " + month_name(1) );
    System.out.println( "Month 2: " + month_name(2) );
    System.out.println( "Month 3: " + month_name(3) );
    System.out.println( "Month 4: " + month_name(4) );
    System.out.println( "Month 5: " + month_name(5) );
    System.out.println( "Month 6: " + month_name(6) );
    System.out.println( "Month 7: " + month_name(7) );
    System.out.println( "Month 8: " + month_name(8) );
    System.out.println( "Month 9: " + month_name(9) );
    System.out.println( "Month 10: " + month_name(10) );
    System.out.println( "Month 11: " + month_name(11) );
    System.out.println( "Month 12: " + month_name(12) );
    System.out.println( "Month 43: " + month_name(43) );
}

Month 1: January
Month 2: February
Month 3: March
Month 4: April
Month 5: May
Month 6: June
Month 7: July
Month 8: August
Month 9: September
Month 10: October
Month 11: November
Month 12: December
Month 43: error
