Program to accept Strings starting with a Vowel

20 May, 2021
Given string str consisting of alphabets, the task is to check whether the given string is starting with a Vowel or Not.
Examples: 
Input: str = "Animal"
Output: Accepted

Input: str = "GeeksforGeeks"
Output: Not Accepted 
Approach:  
Find the first character of the string
Check if the first character of the string is a vowel or not
If yes, print Accepted
Else print Not Accepted  
Below is the implementation of the above approach: 
CPP
Java
Python3
C#
Javascript
