  Tutorial: Alternatives to SavitchIn

SavitchIn to read from the console input stream.

Tutorial Details:

Non-standard. The Savitch textbook is good, but has one objectionable aspect - Instead of using standard Java to get input from the user, he has written a proprietary class called SavitchIn to read from the console input stream. You will never see this class used anywhere else. If you use it in this class, you will have to forget about it and learn the standard way to doing things. I propose we drop it and learn one of the easy, standard ways to do input.

Scanner, but.... Before Java 5 (JDK 1.5), it was awkward to read from the console, so his intentions were good in making it easier for students. Console input can be done using the Java 5 java.util.Scanner class. However, this only works if you have installed Java 5, which was not on the book CD. Some students probably don't have adequate download access, so this alternative is unacceptable. Anyway, there's a better way using graphical dialog boxes.
