try and catch inside a for loop fails!!!

[Kingmaha64]

Here Is a Simple code that reads integers via user input using Scanner object and Prints the 5 integer.

The code works fine for all int values. I included a try and catch methods for inputmismatch exception for scanner.nextInt() .

When I enter a character on promt, the code catches the exception but it never scans the next sunsequent values. I tried resetting the scanner object but it doesnt work!

I am a newbie request your assistance and inputs on why the scanner objects fails to take any other inputs after failing(catch exception) the first time or any susequent entries after an exception?.
Enclosing the Code


import java.util.*;

public class TestApp {


public static void main (String[] args){
System.out.println("This is a sort Program");
System.out.println("please enter 5 numbers ");

Scanner sc= new Scanner(System.in);

int [] inputarry = new int[5];
int [] outarry = new int[5];
int i;
for(i=0;i<5;i++){

String S = "Enter Number " + (i+1);
System.out.println(S);
try {
sc.reset();
inputarry[i] = sc.nextInt();
}
catch (InputMismatchException e){
System.out.println("only ineger value");
}

}
System.out.println("The items before sort");

for(i=0;i<5;i++){
System.out.print('\t');
System.out.print(inputarry[i]);
}



}

}

I suggest full reading the API for Scanner (Java 2 Platform SE 5.0), in particular note the following:

When a scanner throws an InputMismatchException, the scanner will not pass the token that caused the exception, so that it may be retrieved or skipped via some other method.

In other words, your code will continue to throw an InputMismatchException until the value causing that exception is removed.

you can use an infinity loop

        String input="";
        while( true ){
            String S = "Enter Number " + (i+1);
            System.out.println(S);
            input = sc.next();
            try {
                inputarry[i] = Integer.parseInt( input );
                if(i==4) break;
                i++;
            }
            catch (NumberFormatException e){
                System.out.println("only ineger value");
            }

        }

Thank You javahater and dowhile!!!

Wow scanner never passes the token on input mismatch interesting!!!

I have fixed the code in a crude way but! it works and I have better clarity now thanks!
import java.util.*;

System.out.println(S);
try {
sc.reset();
inputarry[i] = sc.nextInt();
}
catch (InputMismatchException e){
System.out.println("only int value");
sc.next(); // crude fix
i--; // crude fix
}

}
System.out.println("The items before sort");

for(i=0;i<5;i++){
System.out.print('\t');
System.out.print(inputarry[i]);
}
