Exercise : ProcessName

Copy/paste and save ProcessName.java in jGRASP, then go to the next slide.

import java.util.*;  // for Scanner

public class ProcessName {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Scanner console = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.print("Type your name: ");
        
        // your code goes here
        
        System.out.println("Your name is: " + name);
    }
}

continued on the next slide ...

Exercise - code to add

• Add code to the program so that it reads the user's first and last name (read an entire line as a single string), then prints the last name followed by a comma and the first initial. (Assume that the user types a valid name.) Example:

  Type your name: Jessica Miller
  Your name is: Miller, J.
  

• Notice that the program reads an entire line of user input, not just one word.
• Try solving this problem in Practice-It! using the link above.
