how to ask the user to enter a sequence of numbers one at a time

[dksellou]

Hi.
I have created this little program. It is the solution to exercise 6.17 of Deitel "how to program Java". The program asks the user to add a sequence of numbers and the program tests if it is odd or even...here is what I did. However, I don't know how to ask the user to enter more than one integers (one at a time) before I show the results:

//Exercise 6.17 Solution : EvenOdd.java

import java.util.Scanner;

public class EvenOdd
{
public void evenOrOdd()
{
Scanner input = new Scanner( System.in );

System.out.printf("%s\n%s\n",
"Please enter an integer and I will tell you if it is even or odd: ",
"Enter 0 to exit: ");

int number= input.nextInt();

while (number !=0)
{
if ( isEven( number ) )
System.out.printf( "%d is even\n", number );
else
System.out.printf( "%d is odd\n", number );

number= input.nextInt();
} // end while loop
} // end method evenOrOdd

// return true if number is even
public boolean isEven( int number )
{
return number % 2 == 0;
} // end method isEven
}//end of class EvenOdd



This program output for example is:

enter an integer: 4
4 is even
enter an integer: 5
5 is odd.


how can you program it showing the following:

enter an integer: 4
enter an integer: 5
4 is even
5 is odd.

import java.util.Scanner;

public class EvenOdd
{
public static final int NUMBER = 5;
static int[] array = new int[NUMBER];
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner input = new Scanner( System.in );

System.out.printf("%s\n%s\n",
"Please enter an integer and I will tell you if it is even or odd: ",
"Enter 0 to exit: ");
for (int i = 0; i < NUMBER; i++) {
System.out.println("Please enter number " + (i+1) + " : ");
array[i]= input.nextInt();
}

for (int i = 0; i < NUMBER; i++) {
isEven( array[i] );
}
}

public static void isEven( int number )
{
if(number % 2 == 0)
System.out.printf( "%d is even\n", number );
else System.out.printf( "%d is odd\n", number );
}
}

this is the code i write. one thing you need to know is that, you have to initialize the number of the integers you want to enter to the system, like the definition of NUMBER which is static in my code. otherwise, it is impossible to realize what you want, personally opinion.
hope it helps.

my original post was so clear ...
I also gave an example.

P.S. I am not in Arrays yet....

Please wrap your code in the code tags.

thinkinjava24's post is what is called spoon-feeding - evidently thinkinjava24 does not know what this is, but for his benefit I'd recommend reading The Problem with Spoon-feeding.

Back to the problem at hand

how can you program it showing the following:

Write out how you would do this on paper - do you know before hand how many integers a user want's to enter? If no, then you must prompt the user to enter this value if you wish for that output.
