I have to add a string to a string for an assignment

Question

I'm having trouble fully understanding arrays. I understand what a int array is, a set of numbers grouped together with their own locations, but I don't understand the purpose of string arrays vs strings, or how to get the user to input a string.

So, I have to make it so that the user enters a string with a % somewhere, and then another string, where the % is, the second string they enter needs to go there. I am NOT looking for a copy paste thing, but an explanation on what code I should use an what it does for that action.

Umm. [Java User input](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5287538/how-can-i-get-the-user-input-in-java)? Unclear what the issue is, or why you even need arrays here. — OneCricketeer, Nov 12 '16 at 20:31

You need a java.util.Scanner

You would enter a String containing a % character

Then, you String#replace that value with a second input string.

No arrays necessary...
