use
input.nextLine();
instead of
input.next();

you will be able to read string values with space :)

Hello @Manojkumar-hl2xg, I understand your issue. The problem is due to the 'next()' method of the Scanner class. It only reads the input until it finds a space. If you want to read the full name with spaces, you should use the 'nextLine()' method instead of 'next()'. Just replace 'input.next()' with 'input.nextLine()' in the given code and that should solve the issue. Hope this helps! Be sure to keep coding and learning.

you can use ArrayList.
just a bit advanced topic considering this video series.

Hey @durgeshmishra5902! Good question. If you want your user to enter names without specifying the number of names beforehand, you could consider utilizing an ArrayList instead of an array. ArrayLists in Java are dynamic, which means they can grow in size as needed when you add elements to them. You can prompt your user to enter names until they decide to quit (for example, by entering a specific keyword like "done" or "exit"). You'd use a loop that repeatedly asks for input until this keyword is received. Hope this helps, and happy coding! Don't forget to subscribe for more Java tips and tutorials!

with next() you cant read a string value with space and with nextline() you can.

Hi @napoleonb55! That's a great question. Yes, there is a difference between input.next() and input.nextLine() when reading strings in Java.

The method input.next() reads the input until it finds a space, that's why it can only read single words. It's unable to read two words separated by space.

On the other hand, input.nextLine() reads the entire line of string input. It reads input including space until the end of line.

That's why in our tutorial where we're reading names, we used input.next(). If we had used input.nextLine() and a user entered their first and last name, it would have taken it as separate inputs.

I hope this helps. Like and subscribe for more tutorials like this!

you don't have to use the loop with arrays.
but here in all these tutorials we need to display the array elements.
so we can do that easily using the for loop.

Great question, @ritikapandit3647! Despite its frequent use, looping is not always necessary while working with arrays in Java. Arrays are highly flexible, you can access any element directly if you know its index. However, when we want to perform operations on all elements of the array or we're uncertain of the exact index we're targeting, loops come in handy. In the tutorial, we used the loop to interact with all array elements. For simpler programs where you are directly accessing individual elements using their indices, you may not need a loop. Hope this clarifies! Stay curious and happy learning!

Instead of taking user input assign that variable with the value of 5

Hello @jomabaste3924, good question! If you are certain you only need to input 5 numbers, you don't need to ask the user for the count. All you need to do is initiate an array with a fixed size of 5. Then, loop 5 times to input each number using the `Scanner` class, just like we did in the video. For example, you would do something like `int[] myArray = new int[5];` to create the array. Then, you would loop over this array using a `for` loop, and use the scanner input method to read the values into the array one by one. I hope this helps! Keep learning, and let me know if there are any other questions.

Thank you.
i'm glad that my tutorials are helping you :)

but array indexing starts from 0
so while storing value in the array you have to make counter -1

Hi @ozzDeveveloperOpenForWork! Thanks for your insightful comment. Indeed, if we initialize counter in the loop with 1, we will prompt the user with "enter name of friend 1" from the get-go. However, remember that arrays in Java are 0-indexed. If we start labeling our friends from index 1, our program won't take the input for the friend with index 0 and the last friend will be out of the bounds of our array. That's why I initialized the counter with 0. Always remember to align your initialization with the array's indexing while programming.
