How to assign value to objects in java
How do I add a value to my ArrayList
in java then print out the value to each object.
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class exercise {
private ArrayList<String> files;
public void ArrayList() {
a = new ArrayList<>();
}
public void addObject() {
a.add("blue")
a.add("green")
a.add("yellow")
}
public void addValue(String Object) {
for (String filenames : a)
Scanner reader = new Scanner(System.in);
int n = reader.nextInt();
a.set(n)
}
}
I want to try assign values by user input to "blue" , "green" and "yellow" so it can be any value
java arraylist java.util.scanner

Where did you get the ArrayLista
from? Where do you declare it?

Edit:
You want to take user's input and if it's a predefined color, like "blue", then add a predefined number for that color, like 3, to a list? Right?
If that is the case then this code takes user's input from the console, checks if that input is a predefined color and then stores a matching number in the ArrayList
.
When the user enters 'stop' then the program prints only the numbers in the list and then terminates.
import java.util.ArrayList;
public class Exercise {
private static ArrayList<Integer> list = new ArrayList<Integer>(); // You can initialize your ArrayList here as well
public static void main(String args) {
String userInput = null;
int number = 0;
do{
// Read inputs as long as user did not entered 'stop'
userInput = readUserInput();
number = createNumberFromColor(userInput);
// add the number to the list if it's not 0
if (number!=0) {
list.add(number);
}
}while (!userInput.equals("stop"));
// If you want afterwards you can print the list elements
System.out.println("The list contains:");
for (int i=0; i<list.size(); i++) {
System.out.print(""+list.get(i)+" ");
}
System.out.println();
}
private static String readUserInput(){
// This is an easier way to read the user input from the console
// than using the Scanner class, which needs to be closed etc...
return System.console().readLine();
}
private static int createNumberFromColor(String input){
switch (input) {
// Add your own cases here, for example case "red": return 1, etc...
case "blue":
return 5;
case "yellow":
return 3;
// If the input was not a known color then return 0
default:
return 0;
}
}
}

Im trying to add a value to the previous items in the ArrayList such as blue = 5 or yellow = 3 instead of terminated the items in it
– henchness

So if the user inserts 5 you will assign "blue", if he inserts 3 you will assign "yellow" etc?
