Thread: Multiple inputs in Java

Hello donjuan,

If you wish to take multiple inputs from the user via the console then you will have to use a while loop:

import java.util.Scanner;
 
public class UserInput {
 
    /**
     * JavaProgrammingForums.com
     */
 
    public static String input;
 
    public static void main(String[] args) {
 
        Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.println("Enter something:");
 
        while(sc.hasNext()){
 
            input = sc.next();
            System.out.println(input);
        }
 
    }
 
}

The main method is setup to allow you to send multiple arguments from the command line at run time.

For example: java ArgumentsExample argument1 argument2 argument3

public class ArgumentsExample {
 
    /**
     * JavaProgrammingForums.com
     */
    public static void main(String[] args) {
 
        //Print command line arguments
        for (String s : args){
            System.out.println(s);
        }
 
    }
 
}

Output:

argument1
argument2
argument3
