AgeCheck2

Language/Type: Java if/else

Modify your solution code from the previous problem, AgeCheck, as follows. First, rename your program's class to AgeCheck2. Next, modify your message method to have the following code: 

// Possibly prints some message(s) to the user based on the given age
public static void message(int age) {
    if (age >= 21) {
        System.out.println("I can legally purchase alcohol!");
    } else if (age >= 17) {
        System.out.println("I can purchase a ticket to an R-rated movie.");
    } else if (age >= 16) {
        System.out.println("I can get my driver's license!");
    }
}

For some age(s), the message(s) printed are not accurate. (In some cases, it should print no messages; in some cases, one message; and in others, many messages.) Improve the usage of if and else in this method to behave properly.
