Problem type

Create a password checker that takes a user's attempts at guessing the password and determines whether or not they guessed correctly. The user is given 3 chances to guess. After that if they have not guessed correctly they are locked out from further attempts.

Input

The first line of input is a string consisting of no more than 500 ASCII characters representing the actual password.
There will be up to 3 additional lines representing the user's guess.

  • If the guess matches the password exactly, output Access granted. and end the program.
  • Otherwise, output Incorrect. After the third incorrect guess, output Access denied. and end the program. NOTE: Passwords can have spaces so if you are using Java and the Scanner class, use nextLine() for input.

Output
