I have this code, and everything is running as i want to except the face that it skips the first time it is supposed to wait for the next input by the user. Here is the code:
import java.util.Scanner;
public class mainThread {
public static int size;
public static int counter;
public static Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
public static String currentIn;
public static void main(String[] args){
System.out.println("Please type the desired amount of players: ");
size = input.nextInt();
String nameArray[] = new String[size];
for(int counter = 0; counter < size; counter++){
System.out.println("Please enter the name of player " + (counter+1));
currentIn = input.nextLine();
nameArray[counter] = currentIn;
System.out.println(nameArray[counter]);
}
}
}
Here is what the console says:
Please type the desired amount of players:
3
Please enter the name of player 1
Please enter the name of player 2
Jacob
Jacob
Please enter the name of player 3
It completely skips the first loop, and i can't seem to figure out why. Thanks for your time!
