string initials(string strA);
// receives a string comprising first, middle and last name and returns the initials of each name, capitalized
// TEST: Maria Sera Turing returns  MST

// receives a string comprising a sentence, counts and returns the number of alphabetical 
// characters a -> z  and A -> Z are the alphabetical characters. 

int countWords(string strA);
// receives a string comprising a sentence, counts and returns the number of words in a the sentence.
// words are separated by spaces.

bool isPalindrome(string strA);
// receives a string and returns true if the string is a palindrome
// a one character string will be considered a palindrome
