The issue with the code you provided is in the way the nextLine()
method is called. Specifically, the correct way to call nextLine()
is on the input
object, which is an instance of the Scanner
class.
Here is the correct line of code:
String s = input.nextLine();
This means the correct choice from the options you provided would be:
Should be: String s = input.nextLine();
The other options are incorrect for the following reasons:
-
"Nothing is wrong, that code won't generate any errors." - This is incorrect because the code as written will result in a compilation error since
nextLine()
is not being called on theScanner
object. -
"Should be: String s = input.next;" - This is incorrect. The
next()
method reads the next token (word) rather than a full line, and it's not the correct method to call. -
"nextLine() method can't work with String variables" - This statement is misleading. The
nextLine()
method returns aString
, and it can indeed be assigned to aString
variable.
So, the correct answer is that the code should be modified to call nextLine()
on the input
object.
