Splitting an string of number into multiple lines using isLetter()

[Juukamen]

Here is the code

/*
 * Read in one line of text, and then break up the words.
 * example
 * 
 * input:
 * this is a line
 * 
 * output:
 * this
 * is 
 * a 
 * line
 */
public class Test2Words {
	public static void main(String[]args){
		
		// setting up variables
		String buffer = "";
		String inputString = "";
		
		// setting up input scanner
		java.util.Scanner input = new java.util.Scanner(System.in);
		
		// getting the input
		System.out.println("Please type in your line");
		inputString = input.nextLine();
		
		// taking the input String and sending out word by word on each line
		for (int i=0;i<inputString.length();i++){
			if(Character.isLetter(inputString.charAt(i))){
				buffer += inputString.charAt(i);
			} else {
				System.out.println(buffer);
				buffer = "";
			} // end if-else
		}// end for i
		
		// print out the last word of the line since the "else" won't be executed.
		System.out.println(buffer);
	}// end main
}// end Test2Words

it works, just got some questions.
any easy fixes to get the last word in the line printed also without using the last println ?

		// print out the last word of the line since the "else" won't be executed.
		System.out.println(buffer);

to get that one into the for, if/else scope.

Work on the logic needed to solve your problem. What are the values of the variables that will tell you where the code is in the processing cycle so it will do what you want?

Hello,

I guess your requirement is to split a string (e.g "Java Forum is a good place") by words.

If yes here is the soln. If no please tell, will give a try....

String inputString = "";
java.util.Scanner input = new java.util.Scanner(System.in);
inputString = input.nextLine();

String words[] = inputString.split(" ");
for( String word: words)
{
System.out.println(word + " ,");
}

@Pramode Pandit Can you fix your code so it does NOT print an ending , following the last word?

Store ur line in a =String'
use split() command...'
split when you encounter space at 0 length...'
Store each of the words in array...'
Display the array using println();

String[] newarray=line.split("",0);
