Question

Java application that uses a loop control structure. Use the Scanner class to accept a number between 1 and 10 from the user. While the number entered is not between 1 and 10 (inclusive), an error message will be displayed “The number entered was not between 1 and 10!” and the program will loop back to prompt the user for another number. If the number entered is between 1 and 10 (inclusive), the application will display a message “Good job! The number you entered is ” and the program will end.

package assignment_4_2;

import java.util.Scanner;

public class Assignment_4_2 {

/**

* @param args the command line arguments

*/

public static void main(String[] args) {

int userNumber;

Scanner reader = new Scanner(System.in); // The scanner to read the user input

System.out.print("Enter a number between 1 and 10: ");

userNumber = reader.nextInt(); // We give the user the option to give a number, and we store it in input

while(userNumber > 10 || userNumber < 1)

{

//System.out.println("Good job! The number you entered is " +userNumber+".");

System.out.println("The number entered was not between 1 and 10! Please enter a number between 1 and 10:");

userNumber = reader.nextInt();

}

//System.out.println("The number entered was not between 1 and 10! Please enter a number between 1 and 10:");

System.out.println("Good job! The number you entered is " +userNumber+".");

}

Explanation / Answer

Hi,

I dont see any issue with this code. It is working as expected.

Assignment_4_2.java

import java.util.Scanner;
public class Assignment_4_2 {
/**
* @param args the command line arguments
*/
public static void main(String[] args) {
int userNumber;
Scanner reader = new Scanner(System.in); // The scanner to read the user input
  
  
System.out.print("Enter a number between 1 and 10: ");
userNumber = reader.nextInt(); // We give the user the option to give a number, and we store it in input
  
while(userNumber > 10 || userNumber < 1)
{
System.out.println("The number entered was not between 1 and 10! Please enter a number between 1 and 10:");
userNumber = reader.nextInt();
}
System.out.println("Good job! The number you entered is " +userNumber+".");
}
}

Output:

Enter a number between 1 and 10: 11
The number entered was not between 1 and 10! Please enter a number between 1 and 10:
11
The number entered was not between 1 and 10! Please enter a number between 1 and 10:
13
The number entered was not between 1 and 10! Please enter a number between 1 and 10:
-5
The number entered was not between 1 and 10! Please enter a number between 1 and 10:
