Answer 1

import java.util.Scanner;

public class Program {
    public static String isName(){
        System.out.print("Enter a name:   ");
        Scanner scaner = new Scanner(System.in);
        String str = scaner.nextLine();
        if (str.substring(0,1).equals(str.substring(0,1).toLowerCase())){
            System.out.print("It's not a name ");
            str = isName();
        }
        return str;
    }
    public static void main(String[]args) {
        System.out.print("Enter a number of elements: ");
        Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
        int n = scan.nextInt();

        String arrayName[] = new String[n];
        String name = null;

        for (int i = 0; i < n; i++){
            arrayName[i] = isName();
        }

        String maxLenghtName = arrayName[0];

        System.out.print("The longest name in the array:   ");

        for (int i = 0; i < n; i++){
            for (int j = 0; j < n; j++){
                if (maxLenghtName.length() < arrayName[j].length()){
                    maxLenghtName = arrayName[j];
                }
            }
            if(maxLenghtName.length() == arrayName[i].length()){
                System.out.print(arrayName[i] + " ");
            }
        }
    }
}
