inputting strings

One way is to wrap the console in a BufferedReader.

import java.io.*;

public class ConsoleInputDemo {

public static void main(String[] args) {

System.out.println("Enter your name.");

try {

BufferedReader consoleReader =

new BufferedReader(

new InputStreamReader(System.in));

String name = consoleReader.readLine();

System.out.print("Hello, ");

System.out.println(name);

} catch (IOException e) {

System.err.println("Cannot read from console!");

}

}

}
