Command To Wait For User Input
Apr 28, 2014
I am new to Java but not to programming, and I wonder what command there is available in Java to put a pause in the program sequence, for instance when you display "press any key to continue... "?

Write a java program that will ask a user to input grades until the user inputs the sentinel value -1. The program should test each input to determine whether 0<=grade<=100. If the grade entered is within this range, the program should print "Grade accepted;" if not, the program should print "Invalid input".

I have been struggling with this program for weeks. This program is supposed to take a user's inputted odd number and then print out all prime numbers lower than that number.
public class PrimeNumber
{
Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
int userNum;
String neg;
public void getUserNum()
[code]...

Where do I input this segment?
Scanner user_input = new Scanner( System.in );// This line goes at the top with the other global variables
public void getUserInput(){
System.out.print("Enter litres: ");
litres = user_input.nextDouble( );
System.out.print("Enter mileage: ");
mileage = user_input.nextDouble( );
System.out.print("Enter speed: ");
speed = user_input.nextDouble( );

This is my client file.
class Client{
public static void main(String []args){
Bike R1=new Bike(5.0, 60.0,30.0);//create bike object with params
Bike R2=new Bike();//without params
System.out.println(R1.increaseSpeed());//calling methods
System.out.println(R1.maxDistance());
System.out.println(R2.increaseSpeed());
System.out.println(R2.maxDistance());
}
}

I want to tell my java method to wait one second while something else is happening. Why not use Thread.sleep(x)? For me it stops the whole program and does not let that some else happen. Why not use wait(x)? It crashes. I tried using timers, but that doesn't solve the problem... Isn't there a simple "Java please wait 1 sec for him to catch up"?

I am trying to create a gambling POS system and having problems with a method trying to get a value right after it was set. A jbutton sets another jframe visible which contains buttons. Upon action of the button, a value is set and the jframe is disposed.
private void btnPrizeActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
PrizeSelling prize = new PrizeSelling();
prize.setVisible(true);//create prize selection window
bin = getButton(); //gets what button is selected to load the correct prizes for correct game
prize.DBconnect(bin);//sends bin number to prize loading method
[Code] ....
As soon as btnPrize is clicked it gets the total value of the prizes selected which of course is 0 because it is ran before it is set. How can I make it wait until the window is closed before continuing?

I am writing a console application that is to make use of the system editor on *NIX. For that I have written a method which writes a string to a file, launches an editor to change that file, and then reads the file again. The problem is the call to run the editor doesn't wait for that application to have closed.
Java Code: Runtime.getRuntime().exec(editorcmd + " " + tmpfn); mh_sh_highlight_all('java'); I need the program to wait for the editor to have finished.

I am trying to execute a program from the command prompt. I type java -jar zuul.jar (zuul is the name of my project) and I get a message that java is not recognized as an internal or external command. What do I do wrong?

With a simple "Hello World" application, once the println is executed the application exits and the process goes away.
If a simple Frame application is executed, the Frame is displayed, the println is executed but the application does not exit.
public class Frame3 extends JFrame
{
Frame3() {
setBounds(100,100,300,100);
setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
setVisible(true);
}
public static void main(String args[]) {
new Frame3();
System.out.println("You are here");
}
}
It isn't that Java is aware an object exists because if I create a basic non-swing, non-gui object it will exit right after the println.
Q1. What is it that causes Java NOT to exit after creating the JFrame?
Q2. What type of object(s) when created will cause the application to continue running?
Q3. What would I do if I wanted the println statement to be executed only after the JFrame was closed?

I've got the game working just fine, but I don't like the way it starts playing the second you hit the "Run Last Class" button in Eclipse, and would really like to have the game start, then wait for the user to click a button before running the core WHILE loop. Everything is implemented in a single class, and here is the playGame method that starts the ball moving:
private void playGame(){
while (!gameover){
moveBall();
checkForCollisions();
}
All I want to do is pause before the WHILE loop until the users clicks the mouse button, nothing fancier than that! I've done quite a bit of reading, and it looks like ActionEvent may be the way to go, but I'm not clear on how to use it correctly in this scenario.

I have been coding in my class at school (Grade 11 Computer science) and i just downloaded the program on my computer at home, unfortunately i cannot access my computer notes at home and i also dont remember certian specifics of coding, so my question is how would i get user input to create a program. The comments are the parts i dont remember. (I am trying to slowly build my memory with this stuff)
Here is my code so far:
import java.util;
[highlight=java]
public class hello_world {
public static void main(String[] args) {
string name;
//WHAT DO I PUT HERE????

I'm working on creating a dice game and getting the users input is giving me a really hard time. I have the main game working but this part I'm stuck on. The problem is that it's not giving me the chance to enter the second input when I ask for the game.
//Create Scanner object
Scanner keys = new Scanner(System.in);
//Get chips
[Code]....
*****This is what I get when I run it
run:
How much money would you like to change? 50
You now have $50 in chips.
What game do you want to play? You did not pick dice.

Is there a way you can control user input?
For example, is it possible to only allow the user to enter digits?

I have been given a piece of work to do for College that requires me to format user input. For example: This is an example of text that will have straight left and right margins after formatting
will transform into:
This..is..an.example
of..text..that..will
have..straight..left
and...right..margins
after.....formatting
The user inputs the width, in the case above being 20. Each line has to therefore be 20 characters long. All spaces are to be replaced with full stops.
This.is.an.example.o
f.text.that.will.hav
e.straight.left.and.
right.margins.after.
formatting..........
public class Main {
public static void main ( String args[])

Goal is to get user input and sum together. I've tried it different ways. This is the one with the least amount of problems.
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Uncompilable source code - Erroneous sym type: java.lang.Integer.parseInt
ArrayList<Integer> leftCU = new ArrayList<>(); {
System.out.println
("Please enter one at a time the number of CU's for each class that is left to complete. Enter Q when done.");
leftCU.add(in.nextInt());

I'm not sure what is wrong with my code:
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Main {
int age = 0;
System.out.println("Enter your age: ");
// Read in values
age = in.nextInt();
}
The in is underlined, telling me "cannot find symbol"

I created a scanner object but it's not asking for any input. when I create a new scanner and then tell it to print it it just prints a bunch of weirdness when AFIK it should be asking me to type something and then it should repeat what i entered.

I would like to multiply the amount stated inside program by user input. I currently have
public static void setTicket(double ticket)
{
//if statement for tickets
if (ticket == 1)
Ticket = 10.00;
else if (ticket == 2)
Ticket = 20.00;
else if ( ticket == 3)
Ticket = 30.00;
The user should enter 2 and the value should show 20.00. This does work however im looking for a way to say enter 2 = 2*10 instead of stating each value individually.
