Re: noob question

Steve,
http://java.sun.com is your friend.  The quick answer to your question is the JavaDoc web pages located at:
     http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/index.html.
Just click the link and the navigate to the package in the upper left pane.  However,
    http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/index.html
is a great start page for a range of Java resources.  For your particular circumstances, please take special notice of the "New-to-JavaTM Programming Center" and "The Java Tutorial" section, although there are MANY good resources there for your browsing pleasure.

Hope this helps.

My instructor has us using the Scanner class (java.util.Scanner) and I want to see what all the public method are, that I can use. Can someone give me a website that would be helpful in searching these classes so I can see what is available to me. I've heard there is a way to do it sometime ago, but I have not come across a place in my book (Yet) that describes how to go about looking at the library classes.  Thank you for any assistance.

Detail:

I was given an example of the Scanner class in which I can:

import java.util.Scanner;

public clas..............

   ............

   Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);

   .......

   ......

   intSomething = keyboard.nextInt();

   doubleSomething = keyboard.nextDouble();

// I just want to get a string of input but I can't do this

   stringSomething = keyboard.nextString();

// So do I have to do a charSomething = keyboard.nextChar(); and use a loop to make my string. I haven't tried it yet because it would seem to me the class would have string handling implemented someway, and I just don't know how to go about finding out what the methods are.

Thanks for putting up with my stupid Noob questions   :)
