In this program, we will read a character from the user and print the corresponding gender using a switch statement.

Program/Source Code:

The source code to read gender (M/F) and print the corresponding gender using a switch statement, is given below. The given program is compiled and executed successfully.

// Java program to read gender (M/F) and print the 
// corresponding gender using switch statement

import java.util.Scanner;

public class Main {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    Scanner SN = new Scanner(System.in);
    char gender;

    System.out.printf("Enter gender (M/m or F/f): ");
    gender = SN.next().charAt(0);

    switch (gender) {
    case 'M':
    case 'm':
      System.out.printf("Male.");
      break;

    case 'F':
    case 'f':
      System.out.printf("Female.");
      break;

    default:
      System.out.printf("Unspecified Gender.");
    }
    System.out.printf("\n");
  }
}

Output:

Enter gender (M/m or F/f): m
Male.

Explanation:

In the above program, we imported the "java.util.Scanner" package to read input from the user. And, created a public class Main. It contains a static method main().

The main() method is an entry point for the program. Here, we read a character from the user using the Scanner class. Then we printed the corresponding gender.
