  1. POMy program skips letting a user enter a value for one variable
    text
    copied!<p>In this program, I'm creating 2 objects from the CarOrder class with preset values. I'm then asking the user for another 2 sets of values to create 2 more objects. Unfortunately, after entering tax status for the first one, it will skip letting the user enter a value for the buyer on the second one. Why is it randomly skipping this one question?</p> <pre><code>public static void main(String[] args) { Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in); CarOrder speedy = new CarOrder("Speedy Rental", "Mini Cooper", 22150, 15, true); CarOrder zip = new CarOrder("Zip Car Co.", "Ford Fusion", 27495, 6, true); System.out.println("Enter Buyer: "); String buyer1 = keyboard.nextLine(); System.out.println("Enter the type of car being purchased: "); String car1 = keyboard.nextLine(); System.out.println("Enter the cost of this purchase: "); double cost1 = keyboard.nextDouble(); System.out.println("Enter quantity of cars being purchased: "); int quantity1 = keyboard.nextInt(); System.out.println("Enter tax status: "); boolean tax1 = keyboard.nextBoolean(); System.out.println("Enter Buyer: "); String buyer2 = keyboard.nextLine(); System.out.println("Enter the type of car being purchased: "); String car2 = keyboard.nextLine(); System.out.println("Enter the cost of this purchase: "); int cost2 = keyboard.nextInt(); System.out.println("Enter quantity of cars being purchased: "); int quantity2 = keyboard.nextInt(); System.out.println("Enter tax status: "); boolean tax2 = keyboard.nextBoolean(); CarOrder state = new CarOrder(buyer1, car1, cost1, quantity1, tax1); CarOrder it = new CarOrder(buyer1, car2, cost2, quantity2, tax2); System.out.println("Chicago Car Wholesalers" ); System.out.println("Oct. 30th, 2012"); System.out.println("New Car Order Report"); } </code></pre> <p>}</p>
