User input using Scanner class

Question

How get string input from user using scanner. e.g:

Scanner get = new Scanner(System.in);

String name = get.nextString(); 

But calling doesn't work with string but it works with integers or double data types.

Answer 1

You have to use new Scanner().nextLine() or just new Scanner().next() because there is no nextString() method in the Scanner;

Answer 2

You should call next() method instead of nextString().
