How do I input Strings in an ArrayList and terminate the input when I input -1

Question

Those who are massive in Java, Help

Answer 1

Something like this maybe, if i understood you right

Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);

String input = "";

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

while(!input.equals("-1")){

System.out.println("Enter word into array: ");
input = scan.nextLine();
list.add(input);

}

list.remove(list.size()-1); // We use this to remove the -1 from the arrarlist because
// you only use it to breake the while loop
System.out.println(list);

// Dont forget to import

Answer 2

If you want the words on a own row instead of [oki, poki, doki]
use a loop:

for(String l: list)
System.out.println(l);
