Program to demonstrate the use of "StringTokenizer" class

The StringTokenizer class allows an application to break a string into tokens. The StringTokenizer methods do not distinguish among identifiers, numbers, and quoted strings, nor do they recognize and skip comments. A StringTokenizer object internally maintains a current position within the string to be tokenized.
A token is returned by taking a substring of the string that was used to create the StringTokenizer object. The following example demonstrate the use of the tokenizer. The code
StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer("this is a demo");
while (st.hasMoreTokens( )) {
    System.out.println(st.nextToken( ));
}

prints the following output:
this
is
a
demo

Some of the methods of StringTokenizer class are given below :
  1. boolean hasMoreTokens( ) : Tests if there are more tokens available from this tokenizer's string.
  2. boolean hasMoreElements( ) : It returns the same value as the hasMoreTokens method.
  3. String nextToken( ) : It returns the next token from this string tokenizer.


PROGRAM
import java.util.StringTokenizer;
import java.util.Scanner;

class StringTokenizerDemo {

 public static void main(String[] args) {
  
  Scanner s = new Scanner(System.in);
  System.out.println("Enter Sentence =>");
  String str = s.nextLine();
  
  StringTokenizer tokens = new StringTokenizer(str);
  
  System.out.println("Tokens are=> ");
  while(tokens.hasMoreTokens())
  {
   System.out.println(tokens.nextToken());
  }
 }
}
OUTPUT
C:\>javac StringTokenizerDemo.java
C:\>java StringTokenizerDemo
Enter Sentence =>
This is a StringTokenizer test
Tokens are=> 
This
is
a
StringTokenizer
test
