java programming
I am currently going through a java programming class at Southern New Hampshire University. I really need some assistance with this lab. It is in Zybooks chapter 5 lab 5.6.1.
Instructions are as follows:
(1) Prompt the user for a string that contains two strings separated by a comma. (1 pt)
Example:
Enter input string: Jill, Allen
(2) Report an error if the input string does not contain a comma. Continue to prompt until a valid string is entered. Note: If the input contains a comma, then assume that the input also contains two strings. (2 pts)
Example:
Enter input string: Jill Allen
Error: No comma in string
Enter input string: Jill, Allen
(3) Extract the two words from the input string and remove any spaces. Store the strings in two separate variables and output the strings. (2 pts)
Example:
Enter input string: Jill, Allen
First word: Jill
Second word: Allen
(4) Using a loop, extend the program to handle multiple lines of input. Continue until the user enters q to quit. (2 pts)
Example:
Enter input string: Jill, Allen
First word: Jill
Second word: Allen
Enter input string: Golden , Monkey
First word: Golden
Second word: Monkey
Enter input string: Washington,DC
First word: Washington
Second word: DC
Enter input string: q
This is what I have come up with so far. I am unsure of where to start loop and extracting words from userInput.
import java.util.Scanner;
public class ParseStrings {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner scnr = new Scanner(System.in);
String userInput = “”;
String word1 = “”;
String word2 = “”;
char q = ‘q’;
System.out.println(“Enter input string: “);
userInput =scnr.nextLine();
// while (!userInput.equals(“q”)) { //exit upon the press of q
if (userInput.contains(“,”)) { //error report for no comma
System.out.print(userInput);
}
else {
System.out.println(“Error: no comma in string.”);
}
scnr.close();
// }
