small code, need help

[p0rnstar]

I need simple code,
At first it should ask name (name should be between 2-15 letters) if its correct than ask for age ( between 18-65)
if there is an error it should ask again. thanks

You first show the code what you tried and ask for suggestion/solution.

Hope is that what you want
The last part of your question i didn't do it sorry:o

import java.util.Scanner;
public class name
{
	public static void main(String[]args)
	{
		Scanner keyboard = new Scanner (System.in);
		String name;
		
		int age,name_length;
		System.out.print("Type your name -should be betwwen 2-15 letters-  :");
		name = keyboard.next();
		name_length=name.length();
		if (name_length>=2&&name_length<=15)
		{
			System.out.println("Your name : " +name);
			
		}
		
		System.out.print("Enter your age -should be betwwen 18-65 -  :");
		age=keyboard.nextInt();
		
		if (age>=18&&age<=56)
		{
			System.out.println("Your age : " +age);
			
		}
	}
}

This is not the best way of answering his question :)

I think validation is usually best using a DO WHILE

not 'if's' !

Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
String str;
do
{
   System.out.println("Do you like pie? Y/N");
   str=input.nextLine();
   if ( str.charAt(0).equals('Y'))
      break;
   else if ( str.charAt(0).equals('N'))
      System.out.println("What is wrong with you? choose Yes!");
}
while (! str.equals('Y')  ||  ! str.equals('N'));

or

Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
int i;
do
{
   System.out.printf("Menu\n1. chocolate\n2.pie\n3.ice-cream\n4.lollypop\n5.marshmallow\n");
   if (! input.hasNextInt())
   {

      System.out.printf("Invalid Option, Please enter a number in range.");

      input.nextLine();

   }
}
while (! input.hasNextInt()); 

i = input.nextInt();

Guess what happens when the user doesn't type anything but just hits the <enter> key ...

kind regards,

Point, it would just print out again. (assuming the code is correct, I wrote it off the top of my head)
What is wrong with you? choose yes!
Do you like pie?



My point is, loops help you achieve validation, if statements don't. OP needs to change code somewhat, and ignore some of the other code choices above.

It really doesn't matter which way you go. There are pros/cons to each. The above code should indeed have an else statement, but using if/else statements would be fine here. The key is to handle what happens if the user inputs something other than expected. Using an else forces you to think about this.

Looks like everything alright but im get error? any ideas?

Looks like everything alright but im get error? any ideas?

You don't tell us what the errors are or what lines throw them, so I'm not sure who can give you ideas.

I have to comment about your original post too. It's nothing more than a homework dump that blatantly asks for "the code". Please try to do better than this.

[Fubarable]

Your code appears to be an unreliable mix of GUI and Scanner code. I think you need to decide up front will the program be a GUI, and if so, should you be using a Scanner object? If not, then should your class be subclassing JPanel?

[p0rnstar]

yes thats the problem that i want to make GUI, but cant understand how to change it

[Fubarable]

How to change what? Your assignment doesn't sound like it requires or that it should even be a GUI.

[p0rnstar]

the problem is that i know how to make this project by scanner, so right now i have to change it to gui. as u see im trying to change while method, but cant get right result

[Fubarable]

What specifically is the assignment? Word for word?

I don't see much GUI code in your little bit of code other than a few JOptionPane calls mixed in with Scanner calls that shouldn't even be there. So what exactly are you trying to do?

[p0rnstar]

If the player types name less than 3, or more than 12 letters, then ignore that name and ask them again.

When the user has supplied a right character name, ask them to specify the age, using dialog again.

[Fubarable]

So in essence, you're not creating a full-fledged GUI, but rather using a series of JOptionPanes instead of Scanner, correct?

If so, and if you in fact have your program running with Scanner, then the first thing I would try to do would be to get rid of all references to Scanner in the little program and instead get all input from your JOptionPanes. Why not try that and then post back your attempt and any errors you encounter. The program structure should be very similar to the previous program, so this should be pretty straightforward.

Best of luck and good night!
