All Implemented Interfaces:: Closeable, AutoCloseable, Iterator<String>

public final class Scanner
extends Object
implements Iterator<String>, Closeable

A simple text scanner which can parse primitive types and strings using regular expressions.

A Scanner breaks its input into tokens using a delimiter pattern, which by default matches whitespace. The resulting tokens may then be converted into values of different types using the various next methods.

For example, this code allows a user to read a number from System.in:

     Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
     int i = sc.nextInt();

As another example, this code allows long types to be assigned from entries in a file myNumbers:

      Scanner sc = new Scanner(new File("myNumbers"));
      while (sc.hasNextLong()) {
          long aLong = sc.nextLong();
      }

The scanner can also use delimiters other than whitespace. This example reads several items in from a string:

     String input = "1 fish 2 fish red fish blue fish";
     Scanner s = new Scanner(input).useDelimiter("\\s*fish\\s*");
     System.out.println(s.nextInt());
     System.out.println(s.nextInt());
     System.out.println(s.next());
     System.out.println(s.next());
     s.close();

prints the following output:

     1
     2
     red
     blue

The same output can be generated with this code, which uses a regular expression to parse all four tokens at once:

     String input = "1 fish 2 fish red fish blue fish";
     Scanner s = new Scanner(input);
     s.findInLine("(\\d+) fish (\\d+) fish (\\w+) fish (\\w+)");
     MatchResult result = s.match();
     for (int i=1; i<=result.groupCount(); i++)
         System.out.println(result.group(i));
     s.close();

The default whitespace delimiter used by a scanner is as recognized by Character.isWhitespace. The reset() method will reset the value of the scanner's delimiter to the default whitespace delimiter regardless of whether it was previously changed.

A scanning operation may block waiting for input.

The next() and hasNext() methods and their primitive-type companion methods (such as nextInt() and hasNextInt()) first skip any input that matches the delimiter pattern, and then attempt to return the next token. Both hasNext and next methods may block waiting for further input. Whether a hasNext method blocks has no connection to whether or not its associated next method will block.

The findInLine(java.lang.String), findWithinHorizon(java.lang.String, int), and skip(java.util.regex.Pattern) methods operate independently of the delimiter pattern. These methods will attempt to match the specified pattern with no regard to delimiters in the input and thus can be used in special circumstances where delimiters are not relevant. These methods may block waiting for more input.

When a scanner throws an InputMismatchException, the scanner will not pass the token that caused the exception, so that it may be retrieved or skipped via some other method.

Depending upon the type of delimiting pattern, empty tokens may be returned. For example, the pattern "\\s+" will return no empty tokens since it matches multiple instances of the delimiter. The delimiting pattern "\\s" could return empty tokens since it only passes one space at a time.

A scanner can read text from any object which implements the Readable interface. If an invocation of the underlying readable's Readable.read(java.nio.CharBuffer) method throws an IOException then the scanner assumes that the end of the input has been reached. The most recent IOException thrown by the underlying readable can be retrieved via the ioException() method.

When a Scanner is closed, it will close its input source if the source implements the Closeable interface.

A Scanner is not safe for multithreaded use without external synchronization.

Unless otherwise mentioned, passing a null parameter into any method of a Scanner will cause a NullPointerException to be thrown.

A scanner will default to interpreting numbers as decimal unless a different radix has been set by using the useRadix(int) method. The reset() method will reset the value of the scanner's radix to 10 regardless of whether it was previously changed.

Localized numbers

An instance of this class is capable of scanning numbers in the standard formats as well as in the formats of the scanner's locale. A scanner's initial locale is the value returned by the Locale.getDefault() method; it may be changed via the useLocale(java.util.Locale) method. The reset() method will reset the value of the scanner's locale to the initial locale regardless of whether it was previously changed.

The localized formats are defined in terms of the following parameters, which for a particular locale are taken from that locale's DecimalFormat object, df, and its and DecimalFormatSymbols object, dfs.

LocalGroupSeparator   The character used to separate thousands groups, i.e., dfs.getGroupingSeparator()

LocalDecimalSeparator   The character used for the decimal point, i.e., dfs.getDecimalSeparator()

LocalPositivePrefix   The string that appears before a positive number (may be empty), i.e., df.getPositivePrefix()

LocalPositiveSuffix   The string that appears after a positive number (may be empty), i.e., df.getPositiveSuffix()

LocalNegativePrefix   The string that appears before a negative number (may be empty), i.e., df.getNegativePrefix()

LocalNegativeSuffix   The string that appears after a negative number (may be empty), i.e., df.getNegativeSuffix()

LocalNaN   The string that represents not-a-number for floating-point values, i.e., dfs.getNaN()

LocalInfinity   The string that represents infinity for floating-point values, i.e., dfs.getInfinity()

Number syntax

The strings that can be parsed as numbers by an instance of this class are specified in terms of the following regular-expression grammar, where Rmax is the highest digit in the radix being used (for example, Rmax is 9 in base 10).

NonASCIIDigit  :: = A non-ASCII character c for which Character.isDigit(c) returns true

Non0Digit  :: = [1-Rmax] | NonASCIIDigit

Digit  :: = [0-Rmax] | NonASCIIDigit

GroupedNumeral  ::

= ( Non0DigitDigit?Digit?

( LocalGroupSeparatorDigitDigitDigit )+ )



Numeral  :: = ( ( Digit+ ) |GroupedNumeral )

Integer  :: = ( [-+]? ( Numeral) )

| LocalPositivePrefix NumeralLocalPositiveSuffix

| LocalNegativePrefix NumeralLocalNegativeSuffix

DecimalNumeral  :: = Numeral

| NumeralLocalDecimalSeparatorDigit*

| LocalDecimalSeparatorDigit+

Exponent  :: = ( [eE] [+-]? Digit+ )

Decimal  :: = ( [-+]? DecimalNumeralExponent? )

| LocalPositivePrefixDecimalNumeralLocalPositiveSuffix Exponent?

| LocalNegativePrefixDecimalNumeralLocalNegativeSuffix Exponent?

HexFloat  :: = [-+]? 0[xX][0-9a-fA-F]*\.[0-9a-fA-F]+ ([pP][-+]?[0-9]+)?

NonNumber  :: = NaN |LocalNan| Infinity |LocalInfinity

SignedNonNumber  :: = ( [-+]? NonNumber )

| LocalPositivePrefixNonNumberLocalPositiveSuffix

| LocalNegativePrefixNonNumberLocalNegativeSuffix

Float  :: = Decimal

| HexFloat

| SignedNonNumber

Whitespace is not significant in the above regular expressions.

```
public boolean hasNext(Pattern pattern)
```
    Returns true if the next complete token matches the specified pattern. A complete token is prefixed and postfixed by input that matches the delimiter pattern. This method may block while waiting for input. The scanner does not advance past any input.
    
    Parameters:
    pattern - the pattern to scan for
    
    Returns:
    true if and only if this scanner has another token matching the specified pattern
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalStateException - if this scanner is closed
  - next
```
public String next(Pattern pattern)
```
    Returns the next token if it matches the specified pattern. This method may block while waiting for input to scan, even if a previous invocation of hasNext(Pattern) returned true. If the match is successful, the scanner advances past the input that matched the pattern.
    
    Parameters:
    pattern - the pattern to scan for
    
    Returns:
    the next token
    
    Throws:
    
    NoSuchElementException - if no more tokens are available
    
    IllegalStateException - if this scanner is closed
  - hasNextLine
```
public boolean hasNextLine()
```
    Returns true if there is another line in the input of this scanner. This method may block while waiting for input. The scanner does not advance past any input.
    
    Returns:
    true if and only if this scanner has another line of input
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalStateException - if this scanner is closed
  - nextLine
```
public String nextLine()
```
    Advances this scanner past the current line and returns the input that was skipped. This method returns the rest of the current line, excluding any line separator at the end. The position is set to the beginning of the next line.
    Since this method continues to search through the input looking for a line separator, it may buffer all of the input searching for the line to skip if no line separators are present.
    
    Returns:
    the line that was skipped
    
    Throws:
    
    NoSuchElementException - if no line was found
    
    IllegalStateException - if this scanner is closed
  - findInLine
```
public String findInLine(String pattern)
```
    Attempts to find the next occurrence of a pattern constructed from the specified string, ignoring delimiters.
    An invocation of this method of the form findInLine(pattern) behaves in exactly the same way as the invocation findInLine(Pattern.compile(pattern)).
    
    Parameters:
    pattern - a string specifying the pattern to search for
    
    Returns:
    the text that matched the specified pattern
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalStateException - if this scanner is closed
  - findInLine
```
public String findInLine(Pattern pattern)
```
    Attempts to find the next occurrence of the specified pattern ignoring delimiters. If the pattern is found before the next line separator, the scanner advances past the input that matched and returns the string that matched the pattern. If no such pattern is detected in the input up to the next line separator, then null is returned and the scanner's position is unchanged. This method may block waiting for input that matches the pattern.
    Since this method continues to search through the input looking for the specified pattern, it may buffer all of the input searching for the desired token if no line separators are present.
    
    Parameters:
    pattern - the pattern to scan for
    
    Returns:
    the text that matched the specified pattern
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalStateException - if this scanner is closed
  - findWithinHorizon
```
public String findWithinHorizon(String pattern,
                       int horizon)
```
    Attempts to find the next occurrence of a pattern constructed from the specified string, ignoring delimiters.
    An invocation of this method of the form findWithinHorizon(pattern) behaves in exactly the same way as the invocation findWithinHorizon(Pattern.compile(pattern, horizon)).
    
    Parameters:
    pattern - a string specifying the pattern to search for
    
    Returns:
    the text that matched the specified pattern
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalStateException - if this scanner is closed
    
    IllegalArgumentException - if horizon is negative
  - findWithinHorizon
```
public String findWithinHorizon(Pattern pattern,
                       int horizon)
```
    Attempts to find the next occurrence of the specified pattern.
    This method searches through the input up to the specified search horizon, ignoring delimiters. If the pattern is found the scanner advances past the input that matched and returns the string that matched the pattern. If no such pattern is detected then the null is returned and the scanner's position remains unchanged. This method may block waiting for input that matches the pattern.
    A scanner will never search more than horizon code points beyond its current position. Note that a match may be clipped by the horizon; that is, an arbitrary match result may have been different if the horizon had been larger. The scanner treats the horizon as a transparent, non-anchoring bound (see Matcher.useTransparentBounds(boolean) and Matcher.useAnchoringBounds(boolean)).
    If horizon is 0, then the horizon is ignored and this method continues to search through the input looking for the specified pattern without bound. In this case it may buffer all of the input searching for the pattern.
    If horizon is negative, then an IllegalArgumentException is thrown.
    
    Parameters:
    pattern - the pattern to scan for
    
    Returns:
    the text that matched the specified pattern
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalStateException - if this scanner is closed
    
    IllegalArgumentException - if horizon is negative
  - skip
```
public Scanner skip(Pattern pattern)
```
    Skips input that matches the specified pattern, ignoring delimiters. This method will skip input if an anchored match of the specified pattern succeeds.
    If a match to the specified pattern is not found at the current position, then no input is skipped and a NoSuchElementException is thrown.
    Since this method seeks to match the specified pattern starting at the scanner's current position, patterns that can match a lot of input (".*", for example) may cause the scanner to buffer a large amount of input.
    Note that it is possible to skip something without risking a NoSuchElementException by using a pattern that can match nothing, e.g., sc.skip("[ \t]*").
    
    Parameters:
    pattern - a string specifying the pattern to skip over
    
    Returns:
    this scanner
    
    Throws:
    
    NoSuchElementException - if the specified pattern is not found
    
    IllegalStateException - if this scanner is closed
  - skip
```
public Scanner skip(String pattern)
```
    Skips input that matches a pattern constructed from the specified string.
    An invocation of this method of the form skip(pattern) behaves in exactly the same way as the invocation skip(Pattern.compile(pattern)).
    
    Parameters:
    pattern - a string specifying the pattern to skip over
    
    Returns:
    this scanner
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalStateException - if this scanner is closed
  - hasNextBoolean
```
public boolean hasNextBoolean()
```

```
public boolean nextBoolean()
```
    Scans the next token of the input into a boolean value and returns that value. This method will throw InputMismatchException if the next token cannot be translated into a valid boolean value. If the match is successful, the scanner advances past the input that matched.
    
    Returns:
    the boolean scanned from the input
    
    Throws:
