Hi guys, I've been trying to get the boolean value in this program to change to true time and again, but I can't figure out what the problem is. I've tried everything I can, but I haven't found the problem yet. Here's what I've got so far:
import java.util.Scanner; public class Combo { private String s1; private String s2; private String s3; private boolean open; private String attemptedCombo; public Combo() { } public String setCombo() { Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in); System.out.println ("Please enter the first digit of your combo:"); s1 = in.nextLine(); System.out.println ("Please enter the second digit of your combo:"); s2 = in.nextLine(); System.out.println ("Please enter the final digit of your combo:"); s3 = in.nextLine(); System.out.println("The combination is now " + s1 + s2 + s3 + "."); return "The combination is now " + s1 + s2 + s3 + "."; } public boolean openLocker(){ Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in); System.out.println ("You encounter a locker!! Enter the combination to open it and presumably get some kind of reward!!:"); attemptedCombo = in.nextLine(); if (attemptedCombo.substring(attemptedCombo.length()).equals(s3) && attemptedCombo.substring(attemptedCombo.length()-1).equals(s2) && attemptedCombo.substring(attemptedCombo.length()-2).equals(s1)) { open = true; System.out.println("The locker is now open."); } else {open = false; System.out.println("The locker remains closed.");} return open; } }
I can't get the boolean "openLocker" to change to true.
Anyone see what I'm doing wrong?
