Why does it give me error? Some explain why i cant store the user input into an int and why i cant use the scanner as a boolen*

Question

public static void main (String args[]){

Scanner y= new
Scanner (System.in);
System.out.println(y.nextInt());
int z=y;
int x= 1;
if (z = x){ System.out.println("hello");}
else {System.out.println ("nope");}
}

*even tho im using an if loop. I mean the loop is kinda true/false so maybe the program is reading it as a boolen. Please i need an explanation it would help me alot. Thanks in advance :)

Answer 1

Victor Tonna If you plan to show your code in a thread, please make sure that it is void of profanities.

Answer 2

Line 12:
if(z==X). <- double equal to sign

= Assignment
== Comparison

Line no. 7
Scanner y= new Scanner (System.in);

z = y.nextInt();

Remove line no. 9 and write line no. 7 and 8 in one line
