Word Potential

This Java program takes a user-input sentence as a string, splits it into individual words, calculates a numeric "potential" value for each word based on the character codes of letters in the word, displays the words and their potentials, then sorts the words by potential and displays them in sorted order. It uses string and array methods, a for loop to calculate potentials, and nested for loops to sort the words. The user is prompted to enter another sentence or quit after each run.
