Afam4eva: First, explain to us what present tense, past tense and future tense means. Don't assume that we know it.

1. read the line
2. Search for the auxilliary verb (has or will or was)
3. If (was) is found then display - Past tense
4. If (will) is found, then display - Future tense
5. If (has) is found, then display -Past participle tense {Although op didnt include this in his instructions, probably unintentionally}
6. If (none) is found, then display - Present tense
7. Else display - Undetermined
8. End of program

onegig: Damn...I laugh at my fellow countrymen's ignorance. If it were to be one rock, music or other useless stuff. The page go don reach 30 pages. And to think the so called literate can't even deduce what this means..smh

it's either I don't understand or this is quite easy.
Perhaps I don't understand.
To get it straight, we're to write a program
to classify those  4 sentences ONLY as past, present or future tense.
Am I right?

No, I think you may be wrong. This is a programming task and for programmers only. Don't expect an auto mechanic and a lawyer ... etc to make any contribution.

dustydee: nice challenge. This may help our youth who are fast losing their English language skills to short hand writing/ abbreviations.

Dude,
I have been an active programmer for more than 10 years. That task is not a task you can jump into and say this is what the solution is except you want to go the lazy route of checking for "is","was","will" to categorize present, past and future tenses.

Besides, i can't see your solution apart from the abuses. The problem is strictly for programmers ok ?

space reserved too...
