I need a code to write String in the console and making compare with Array.

The first line of your sample code doesn't compile, making it hard to tell what you're trying to achieve. — Jon Skeet, Dec 12 '12 at 09:53
you right my English not good better must I say I tried to write code for inputing data by console and making compare with an Array. — sarot, Dec 12 '12 at 09:59
Your **code** will not compile. It doesn't help that your English isn't good either - you haven't explained *how* you want to compare the user input with the array - but I was mostly commenting on the code... — Jon Skeet, Dec 12 '12 at 10:01
Ok first can you tell me how I can input String by console ? — sarot, Dec 12 '12 at 10:03
`System.in.readLine()`? Or `Console.readLine()`? How much of the `Console` API did you look at before asking us? — Jon Skeet, Dec 12 '12 at 10:23
He wanted to ask something like this: `var stringArray = new[] { "skillFirst", "skillSecond" };` `var consoleInput = Console.ReadLine();` — MikroDel, Dec 12 '12 at 10:42

here is an example to read a string from the keyboard and compare the string with another string

import java.util.Scanner;
public class Main
{
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
        String input = null;
        String compareString = "hello world";
        Scanner inputReader = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.println("please enter: hello world" );

        // here is how you take the input from keyboard

        input = inputReader.nextLine();
                // this is how you write to console
        System.out.println("You entered :" + input);

        //Here is how you compare two string
        if(compareString.equals(input))
        {
            System.out.println("input is: hello world");
        }
        else
        {
            System.out.println("input is not: hello world");
        }
    }
}

Execution1:

Please enter: hello world

Input:

hello world

output:

You entered :hello world
input is: hello world

Execution2:

Please enter: hello world

Input:

hello

output:

You entered :hello 
input is not: hello world
