A 5 letter word x is hidden in a string y such that the first two letters of x are the first two
letters of y and the third letter of x is the middle letter of y and the last two letters of x are the
last two letters of y. Note that y is any string with length greater than 5.
For example, the 10-letter string grabcefgat hides the 5-letter word great.
And the 7-letter string enatber hides the 5-letter word enter.
(a) Write a function called extract that takes a string as an input parameter and returns the
hidden word.
(b) Write a program that reads a string from the user and displays the hidden word extracted from the entered string using the function extract.
