I wrote this code:
import java.io.*;
public class dictionary
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
String[] MyArrayE=new String[5];
String[] MyArrayS=new String[5];
String[] MyArrayA=new String[5];
MyArrayE[0]="Language";
MyArrayE[1]="Computer";
MyArrayE[2]="Engineer";
MyArrayE[3]="Home";
MyArrayE[4]="Table";
MyArrayS[0]="Lingua";
MyArrayS[1]="Computador";
MyArrayS[2]="Ing.";
MyArrayS[3]="Casa";
MyArrayS[4]="Mesa";
System.out.println("Please enter a word");
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
String word= null;
try {
word= br.readLine();
} catch (IOException e) {
System.out.println("Error!");
System.exit(1);
}
System.out.println("Your word is " + word);
for(int i=0; i<MyArrayA.length; i++)
{
if(word.equals(MyArrayS[i]))
{
System.out.println(MyArrayE[i]);
}
}
}
}
My Question: What about if the user inputs a word not in MyArrayS, I want to check that and print a statement like "Word does not exist".
I think that it might look like:
if(word!=MyArrayS)
{
System.out.println("Word does not exist");
}
