首页 > 解决方案 > 如何提示用户只输入他们可以选择的三个选项之一,并显示错误输入的错误消息

问题描述

该程序将提示用户输入介质(空气、水或钢)和距离。然后计算声波穿过介质的距离。

我编写了整个程序,但我没有阅读我的教授在作业中添加的最后一点,即下一段。现在我被卡住了,因为我不太确定如何将它添加到我的程序中。我使用的是 if 语句,但也许我可以将它添加到一个语句中?

程序提示输入介质:“输入以下选项之一:空气、水或钢:”并读取介质。如果介质不是空气、水或钢,程序将打印消息:“对不起,您必须输入空气、水或钢”,仅此而已。否则程序提示输入以下距离。

我尝试了一个while循环并添加了另一个if语句,但实际上我的问题是语法。因为我从来不需要命令用户输入特定的字符串。

public class SpeedOfSound {
    public static void main(String[] args) {

        double distance;
        double time;

        Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);
        //prompt the user to enter the medium through which sound will 
        System.out.print("Enter one of the following: air, water, or steel:");
        String input;
        input = keyboard.nextLine();

        // prompt the user to enter a distance

        System.out.print("Enter distance in feet: ");

        distance = keyboard.nextDouble();

        // determine if medium is air, water, steele and calculate

        if (input.equals("air")) {
            time = (distance / 1100);
            System.out.println("The total time traveled is " + time + " feet per second.");
        }
        else if (input.equals("water"))

        {
            time = (distance / 4900);
            System.out.println("The total time traveled is " + time + " feet per second.");
        }

        else if (input.equals("steel"))
        {
            time = (distance / 16400);
            System.out.println("The total time traveled is " + time + " feet per second.");
        }
    }
}

我的预期结果是让用户只输入空气、水或钢。

解决方案


你的代码有几个问题,我冒昧地纠正了它们。通读注释以更好地理解代码的每个部分。

public class SpeedOfSound
{
    /* Best to declare it here so other methods have access to it. */
    private static final Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);
    /*
     * Declared as a class field so you can use it if you
     * have a need for it in addition to time calculated in main.
     */
    private static double distance;

    /**
     * Blocks program execution until a number has been detected as user input.
     * @return numeric representation of user input.
     */
    public static double getDistance()
    {
        System.out.println("Enter distance in feet: ");
        // CAREFUL: This will throw an exception if the user enters a String
        // return keyboard.nextDouble();
        while (keyboard.hasNext())
        {
            /*
             * Check if the user input is actually a number
             * and if it isn't print an error and get next token
             */
            String input = keyboard.nextLine();
            try {
                return Double.valueOf(input);
            }
            catch (NumberFormatException e) {
                System.out.println("Incorrect input, try again.");
            }
        }
        throw new IllegalStateException("Scanner doesn't have any more tokens.");
    }

    /**
     * Calculate the speed of sound for user input which is limited to:
     * <ul>
     *     <li>Air</li>
     *     <li>Water</li>
     *     <li>Steel</li>
     * </ul>
     * @return total time traveled in feet per second.
     */
    public static Double calculate()
    {
        Double time = null;

        //prompt the user to enter the medium through which sound will travel through
        System.out.println("Enter one of the following: air, water, or  steel:");

        // The loop will break the moment time is calculated
        while (time == null && keyboard.hasNext())
        {
            double distance;
            String input = keyboard.nextLine();

            //determine if medium is air, water, steele and calculate

            if (input.equals("air"))
            {
                distance = getDistance();
                time = (distance / 1100);
            }
            else if (input.equals("water"))
            {
                distance = getDistance();
                time = (distance / 4900);
            }
            else if (input.equals("steel"))
            {
                distance = getDistance();
                time = (distance / 16400);
            }
            else System.out.println("Incorrect input, try again.");
        }
        return time;
    }

    public static void main(String[ ] args)
    {
        Double time = calculate();
        System.out.println("The total time traveled is " + time + " feet per second.");
    }
}

然而,我处理这个任务的方法是在enum排序中实现元素并将大部分calculate()方法移动到那里。这将允许您快速创建更多元素,例如airwatersteel无需创建额外if的块来处理它们。

元素枚举器

public enum Element {

    AIR("air", 1100),
    WATER("water", 4900),
    STEEL("steel", 16400);

    private final String name;
    private final int factor;

    Element(String name, int factor) {
        this.name = name;
        this.factor = factor;
    }

    /**
     * @param element name of the element to calculate time for
     * @return total time traveled in feet per second for given element or
     *         {@code null} if no element matched the given name.
     */
    public static Double getTimeTraveledFor(String element)
    {
        /* Find an element that matches the given name */
        for (Element e : Element.values()) {
            /*
             * Validate the parameter without case consideration.
             * This might be a better way of validating input unless
             * for some reason you really want a case-sensitive input
             */
            if (e.name.equalsIgnoreCase(element)) {
                return SpeedOfSound.getDistance() / e.factor;
            }
        }
        return null;
    }
}

修改方法

public static Double calculate()
{
    Double time = null;

    //prompt the user to enter the medium through which sound will travel through
    System.out.println("Enter one of the following: air, water, or  steel:");

    // The loop will break the moment time is calculated
    while (time == null && keyboard.hasNext())
    {
        String input = keyboard.nextLine();
        time = Element.getTimeTraveledFor(input);
        if (time == null) {
            System.out.printf("%s is not a recognized element, try again.", input);
        }
    }
    return time;
}
