6. Using the Scanner Class in Java (Complex)

Watch in HD for better viewing.

Learn to take information from the user and use the information in your programming. This program is the second iteration of my print name program. It uses two classes and a method. By watching this, you are taking the first step in understanding object oriented programming.

Code:

import java.util.Scanner;

class GetInformation {

public static void main(String args[]) {
GetName newGetName = new GetName();
newGetName.doWork();

}

}

class GetName {

Scanner myScanner = new Scanner(System.in);
String input;

void doWork() {

System.out.println("Enter your name please: ");
input=myScanner.nextLine();

System.out.println("Your name is: " + input);

}

}

I hate to tell you man, but this is not a complex use of the Scanner class. You don't even cover the handling of Exceptions as you should.

Such a long code for such a small task. In C++ is much easier and shorter, althought it's not as portable as Java :( Ayway, very nice tutorial :D Subscribed !
