This exercise uses the Java LinkedList class.

Using the input file words_no_duplicates.txt, input each string putting it into a different LinkedList depending on the first character in the String. (Yes, you will need 26 linked lists).

Then prompt the user for a (lower case) character and display all the words beginning with that character. (If the user enters an invalid character, trap them in a loop until they give you a valid one).

Note: nothing is sorted.

words_no_duplicates.txt:

noncollectable

reallocation

drenching

obnoxious

venality

dybbuk

shotgun

changelessly

handiwork

unheralded

dovecote

anode

spellbind

psychologist

improvisational

prejudiced

What I have so far:

import java.io.File;

import java.io.FileNotFoundException;

import java.util.Arrays;

import java.util.LinkedList;

import java.util.Scanner;

public class H4 {

public static void main(String[] args) { File File1 = new File("words_no_duplicates-edited.txt"); Scanner fileInput = null; try { fileInput = new Scanner(File1); } catch (FileNotFoundException e) { } LinkedList[] lists = new LinkedList[26]; for (int i = 0; i < lists.length; i++) { lists[i] = new LinkedList<>(); }

while (fileInput.hasNext()) { String letter = fileInput.next(); lists[letter.charAt(0)-'a'].add(letter); } Scanner scnr = new Scanner(System.in); System.out.println("Enter a lowercase letter: "); char chara = scnr.next().charAt(0); while(!"0".equals(chara)){ System.out.println("Enter a lowercase letter: "); System.out.println(lists[chara-'a']); } } }

Need help fixing the loop where it prompts the user to enter a character I want it to be able to enter a character and once the results are returned I want it to ask the user again to enter a character or enter " 0 " to exit the program. I also want to be able to enter upper or lowercase characters I currently only have lowercase
