Getting and Storing User Input Submit Assignment Due No Due Date Points 1 Submitting a text entry box or a website url Getting and storing user input The Scanner object allows people to input data. It captures all the input on a standard input (like the keyboard) and delivers it to a variable.
A Scanner scans the input by tokens using a delimiter pattern. The default delimiter is a space. The scanner reads the input token by token. The resulting tokens may be converted into values of different types using various methods.
To include the Scanner class in your program Add the following declaration to the top of your code:
import java.util.Scanner; Then, at some point, you will need to add this inside your program
Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in); Once you have created your scanner variable, you can request data and put it into another variable like so:
Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in); String myAnswer = keyboard.next(); Methods of the Scanner class Method Returns int nextInt() Returns the next token as an int. long nextLong() Returns the next token as a long. float nextFloat() Returns the next token as a float. double nextDouble() Returns the next token as a long. String next() Finds and returns the next complete token from this scanner and returns it as a string; a token is usually ended by whitespace such as a blank or line break. If no token exists, NoSuchElementException is thrown. String nextLine() Returns the rest of the current line, excluding any line separator at the end. void close() Closes the scanner object.
