Answer 5

Don't think you can convert it but you can add it to an ArrayList
Use .add()

ArrayList<String> ary = new ArrayList<String>();

String word = input.next();

ary.add(word);

Answer 8

If you want to put the input strings (separated by space for example) into an arraylist, you can do it like this.

ArrayList<String> strList = new ArrayList<String>();
Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
while (scan.hasNext()) {
String s = scan.next();
strList.add(s);
}
