This is my code so far
I asked here before but I still don't get how to save the string into an array.
for example, the user puts 3 numbers of characters and input names and role, origin 3 times, 5 times or 10 times.
now it displays the string that I already input...
Need help you guys I really appreciate any help!!!!

Answer 1

try this

legendary[] leg = new legendary[numbers];
int i = 0;
while (i<numbers)
{
legendary temp_legend = new legendary();
temp_legend.set_first_name();
temp_legend.set_last_name();
temp_legend.set_nickname();
temp_legend.set_roles();
temp_legend.set_origins();
leg[i]=temp_legend;
i++;
}

Answer 2

thank you but still doesn't work
it gets error .set_first_name();
.set_last_name();
.set_nickname();
.set_roles();
.set_origins();
these parts..

and on for(int y = 0; y < numbers; y++){
leg[y] = temp_legend;
}
this part temp_legend;

I agree with @serena your code is kind of spaghetti , now i am after lunch so i could suggest you this option:

import java.util.Scanner;
public class main_source
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
int numbers = 0;
System.out.println("Enter the number of characters you want to put: ");
numbers = scan.nextInt();
legendary[] legArr = new legendary[numbers];
int i = 0;
String firstName = "";
String lastName = "";
String nickName = "";
String role = "";
String origin = "";
while (i<numbers)
{
System.out.print("Enter first name: ");
firstName = scan.nextLine();
System.out.print("Enter last name: ");
lastName = scan.nextLine();
System.out.print("Enter nickname: ");
nickName = scan.nextLine();
System.out.print("Enter role: ");
role = scan.nextLine();
System.out.print("Enter origin: ");
origin = scan.nextLine();
legendary leg = new legendary(firstName,lastName,nickName,role,origin)
legArr[i]=leg;
i++;
}
//display
for(legendary leg : legArr)
{
leg.display_info();
}
}
}

//different class
import java.util.Scanner;
public class legendary
{
private String firstName;
private String lastName;
private String nickName;
private String role;
private String origin;
//Constructor
public legendary(String firstName,String lastName , String nickName , String role , String origin)
{
this.firstName=firstName;
this.lastName=lastName;
this.nickName=nickName;
this.role=role;
this.origin=origin;
}
public void display_info()
{
//This will display first, last, nickname, role, and origin
System.out.println("Name: " + firstName + " " + lastName);
System.out.println("Nickname: " + nickName);
System.out.println("Role: " + role);
System.out.println("Origin: " + origin);
System.out.print("\n");
}
