This is exactly how you use a java scanner! ✅Hopefully, what I've taught you about how to use scanners can help you with your program.

You create a java scanner like this:

This helped me really understand the Scanner Class better. I know this is a 4 year old video but it really helped a lot. Thank you

Alex you're amazing at explaining these things, thanks for helping me understand those basic topics!

Worth to say that you can also use another method instead of using: quote += scan.nextLine(); you can also just type: scan.nextLine(); after previous int age = scan.nextInt();
Also good idea is to use seperate method as:
public int getInt() {
int number = scan.nextInt();
scan.nextLine();
return number;
}
and just type for example:
int numer = getInt();


Overall great tutorial, im very new to programming myself so will use your videos for sure.

Bro I gotta let you know how much your videos helped me out this semester, the language barrier with my professor made it really difficult to understand things and class, but actually learning a lot more here than in class 😅, but anyway thanks bro your really going save me this semester

I know python and finding it really hard to get into java for like couple of years and then i quit on java because there was no resources to learn as easy as it is in python. Then this dude came in, man i do not appreciate anyone because of my ego but u dude u killing it. Your “learn java in 14 minutes” video popped in my feed i watched it with a mindset that how much an idiot one can be who is teaching java in 14 minutes. I watched and kinda liked it. Now here i am watching full course of videos and learning java. U nailed it man. Loved it and I appreciate how easy you made it to understand. I am learning java again and finally i feel i will do a careeer switch into java, thanks to u man

*0.06* Scanners aren't taught very well !!! I felt that and i used to think that i was the only one facing issues with scanner input :(

[nazazhdar]

[omarsuleiman]

Why was that so much harder for my professor and boss to explain but this makes it seem like it’s kindergarten easy!
Thanks so much for breaking it down Barney style! I learned in 12 minutes what I couldn’t for a whole day! Thanks 🙏🏼

[jorgerivera]

Hey Alex, I just started in college. I'm doing a Diploma in Network Systems and one of my modules is Java Programming. All my lessons are on ColCampus so I can't physically interact with my educators which is really a challenge, they don't make content as easily understandable as you do, I find myself very frustrated at times not understanding what to do, however I find your content really helpful. Thank you so much.

[alexandrahulett]

I just learned more two minutes into your video than a whole week in class. Thanks!

[milkonion]

I always used scanner lol but never truly understood what I was doing when I thought about it.







now its crystal clear

[raenamcintosh]

thank you so much. java is so much harder for me than python and this is the only resource getting me through my classes

[kiaholyfield]

This is one of the best tutorials I have seen! Thank you!

[ikouve]

The beginning is so true:"if you like me, you may not have had a great java teacher"!. So true, SO TRUE!!!

[AleX-ccdl]

You have excellent teaching skills. Glad I found your channel. While others simply explain what to use and what the result is, you explain why to use it, and thus makes perfect sense in one's head. Thank you!!
