Apr 20, 2015 at 5:32 comment added Ungeheuer @Dariusz or perhaps the massive amounts of answers are a sign that the SO community is willing to help everyone and anyone out. It can be frustrating to come across an error when you first start programming and cannot figure it out. Perhaps instead of criticizing the community for these actions, you should praise its willingness to help out fellow coders, amateurs and professionals alike.

Sep 16, 2013 at 10:51 comment added RossC @Dariusz I didn't look on it like that, and I take your point on board. I guess I'm weary from the usual 'write me an app that makes me a million dollars as I'm too lazy to bother' type posts that are spreading lately. The reputation hunt is out of control for sure, and I even find myself having to hold back from certain posts as they are for the wrong reason, and may not be that helpful. It's a double edged sword for sure.
Sep 16, 2013 at 10:47 comment added Dariusz @RossC I disagree. While this question is properly written and has all technical elements of a good question, it is a trivial mistake which should IMO be closed within seconds with a single comment explaining the error (like Stefan Beike's). 10 answers on this question only show how StackOverflow is a blind reputation hunt for some people.

Sep 10, 2013 at 16:53 comment added MirroredFate When you say "new", for instance new Car(), it's like acquiring a car. However, to use that car you still need the keys. That's what the variable assignment before the '=' is for. So saying Volvo myCar = new Volvo() gets you a new car, and says that myCar is the key to that Volvo. You can then use myCar to access the various things that car can do. Your variable s is the key to the string you are using. In this case, you just need a key to access what your new Scannner() can do (hence the myScanner in TanisDLJ's answer).

Sep 10, 2013 at 13:34 comment added RossC Eager to learn, and showed the code and the error. Definitely adding an upvote for that alone. If everyone did this in S.O. it'd be so much better. Can't add an answer as there's good ones below! Just a small point to the author: have a look at the javadocs for Scanner and String etc, it's a lot to take in but they get easier and can be a A BIG help going forward. Good luck with your programming :)
