whats wrong?

Question

import java.util.Scanner;
public class Program
{
public static void main(String[] args) {

Program p = new Program();

String result = p.Cap (x);
System.out.println (result);

}

public static String Cap (String x){

Scanner scan = new Scanner (System.in);

x = scan.nextLine();

return x.substring (0, 1).toUpperCase() + x.substring (1);

}

}

Answer 1

yahel add "String x" inside the static method Cap(). You are passing "x" to Cap() in the main method but not accepting a String parameter in the actual Cap(). Hope you get it now.

Answer 2

Your method cap() is static. To call it you don't need an instance of Program.

String result = cap(x);

In your main you don't have a variable x.

If you want to ask for user input inside cap() then remove the parameter.

public static String cap(){
}

in your main:
String result = cap();

But you can also put the Scanner in your main:

Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
x = scan.nextLine();

String result = cap(x);

Denise Roßberg I did that and it didn't work... so I moved the Scanner to the Cap method... maybe I did something wrong... I will check and let you know. Thanks

Answer 4

Denise Roßberg look, its not working:
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Program
{
public static void main(String[] args) {

Scanner scan = new Scanner (System.in);

String x = scan.nextLine();

String result = Cap (x);
System.out.println (result);

}

public static String Cap (){

return x.substring (0, 1).toUpperCase() + x.substring (1);

}

}
