Hint: You are looking for substrings within a string.

Hi, I've got a project in which I need the program to reject a sentence if it has a certain word in it using StringTokenizer. Here is what I have so far

Java Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)

 import TerminalIO.*;
import java.util.*;
public class Censor
{
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
        KeyboardReader reader = new KeyboardReader();
        System.out.println("Enter next sentence: ");
        String s = reader.readLine();
        StringTokenizer stk = new StringTokenizer(s);
        String ac = ">>>ACCEPTED";
        for(int j = 0; j < stk.countTokens();j++)
        {
          String nxt = stk.nextToken();
 
          if(nxt.equalsIgnoreCase("hermes"))
            ac = ">>>REJECTED";
          else if(nxt.equalsIgnoreCase("bridge"))
            ac = ">>>REJECTED";
          else if(nxt.equalsIgnoreCase("Muddy"))
            ac = ">>>REJECTED";
          else if(nxt.equalsIgnoreCase("River"))
            ac = ">>>REJECTED";
          else if(nxt.equalsIgnoreCase("assault"))
            ac = ">>>REJECTED";
          else if(nxt.equalsIgnoreCase("offensive"))
            ac = ">>>REJECTED";
 
        }
        System.out.println(s + ac);
    }   
}

import TerminalIO.*; import java.util.*; public class Censor { public static void main(String args[]) { KeyboardReader reader = new KeyboardReader(); System.out.println("Enter next sentence: "); String s = reader.readLine(); StringTokenizer stk = new StringTokenizer(s); String ac = ">>>ACCEPTED"; for(int j = 0; j < stk.countTokens();j++) { String nxt = stk.nextToken(); if(nxt.equalsIgnoreCase("hermes")) ac = ">>>REJECTED"; else if(nxt.equalsIgnoreCase("bridge")) ac = ">>>REJECTED"; else if(nxt.equalsIgnoreCase("Muddy")) ac = ">>>REJECTED"; else if(nxt.equalsIgnoreCase("River")) ac = ">>>REJECTED"; else if(nxt.equalsIgnoreCase("assault")) ac = ">>>REJECTED"; else if(nxt.equalsIgnoreCase("offensive")) ac = ">>>REJECTED"; } System.out.println(s + ac); } }

it doesn't exactly work so any help is appreciated.

Why don't u use nice standard functions...
