Notes for class 9 on 10/10/2020 [Scanner class methods and programs]

7.next() This method is used to read the text or a token/a

word (until the first delimiter or space is
encountered). It returns a string value.
Ex: System.out.println(“Enter a word:”);
String st= sc.next ();

8.nextLine() This method is used to read the

complete line of text including
spaces.
Ex: System.out.println(“Enter a
sentence:”);
String st= sc. nextLine();

9.next().charAt(0) zero This method is used to read/accept

a character.
Ex: System.out.println(“Enter a
character:”);
char m = sc. next().charAt(0) ; zero

 Differentiate between next() and nextLine()

methods.
next() nextLine()
1. This method is used to read 1.This method is used to read
the text or a token/a word the complete line of text
(until the first delimiter or including spaces.
space is encountered). It
returns a string value.

2. String st= sc.next(); 2. String str=

sc.nextLine();
 1. W A J P TO input you’re your Name, Class
,section and Roll Number and Display them.
Sol:
import java.util.*;
public class scannerclass
{
public static void main(String hj[])
{
Scanner sc= new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Enter your name:");
String na=sc.nextLine();
System.out.println("Enter your class:");
byte cl=sc.nextByte();
System.out.println("Enter your section:");
char s=sc.next().charAt(0);
System.out.println("Enter your Roll Number:");
short rno=sc.nextShort();
// Displaying the Student's Details
System.out.println();
System.out.println("Student\'s Name="+na+"\n
class="+cl+"\n Section="+s+"\n Roll no="+rno);
}
}
2. /* WAJP to accept all the 3 sides of an isoceles
triangle's area where area= √s(s-a)s-b)(s-c) where s=
a+b+c/2 */
import java.util.*;

double s= a+b+c/2.0;
System.out.println("The Perimeter="+s);
double area = Math.sqrt(s*(s-a)*(s-b)*(s-c));
System.out.println("The Area of an Isosceles
Triangle:"+area);
}
}
/* OUTPUT:
enter 3 sides of the triangle:
enter a value:
5
enter b value:

enter c value:
7
The Perimeter=14.5
