Trying to figure out how I would take any amount of inputted numbers from a user and add them together
Example user input: 1 2 3 4
Sum = 10
The user can put any amount of numbers in not a specified amount so if he wanted to add 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13, it would sum them all up to 91
Thanks for the help in advance.
import java.util.Scanner;
public class test
{
public static final int SENTINEL = -1;
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner kb = new Scanner(System.in);
int score = 0;
int sum = 0;
System.out.println("Enter numbers here");
while (score >= 0) {
if (score <= -1) {
score = kb.nextInt();
sum += score;
score = 0;
}
System.out.println(sum);
}
}
}
Thanks to libik for all his time and help, here is the finished code.
import java.util.Scanner;
public class JavaApplication1156 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Enter numbers here");
int sum;
do {
Scanner kb = new Scanner(System.in);
int score = 0;
sum = 0;
String line = kb.nextLine();
kb = new Scanner(line); //has to do this to make the kb.hasNexInt() work.
while (kb.hasNextInt()) {
score = kb.nextInt();
sum += score;
}
if (sum <= -1)
System.out.println("Application ended");
else if (sum >= 0)
System.out.println("Sum = " + sum);
} while (sum != -1);
}
}
It is very easy actually
import java.util.Scanner;
public class JavaApplication115 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("write numbers, if you write zero, program ends");
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in); //just copy-and paste this line, you dont have to understand it yet.
int number;
int sum = 0;
do {
number = input.nextInt(); //this reads number from input and store its value in variable number
sum+= number; //here you add number to the total sum
} while(number != 0); //just repeat cycle as long as number is not zero
System.out.println("Sum is : " + sum);
}
}
Working code based on your code :
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner kb = new Scanner(System.in);
int score = 0;
int sum = 0;
System.out.println("Enter numbers here");
String line = kb.nextLine();
kb = new Scanner(line); //has to do this to make the kb.hasNexInt() work.
while (kb.hasNextInt()) {
score = kb.nextInt();
sum += score;
}
System.out.println(sum);
}
Also if you are interested in "minimal" version, which is the same as the one before, but using as less code as possible, here it is :
public static void main(String[] args) {
int sum = 0;
System.out.println("Enter numbers here");
Scanner kb = new Scanner((new Scanner(System.in)).nextLine()); //has to do this to make the kb.hasNexInt() work.
while (kb.hasNextInt()) {
sum += kb.nextInt();
}
System.out.println(sum);
}
Find sum of each line as long as sum is not zero (based on second block of code) :
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Enter numbers here");
int sum;
do {
Scanner kb = new Scanner(System.in);
int score = 0;
sum = 0;
String line = kb.nextLine();
kb = new Scanner(line); //has to do this to make the kb.hasNexInt() work.
while (kb.hasNextInt()) {
score = kb.nextInt();
sum += score;
}
System.out.println("Sum = " + sum);
} while (sum != 0);
}
