In java when I was working on Netbeans Ide I saw method of nextInt(int radix). I tried to implement this and passed an integer number, but that gave an exception of InputMismatchException. My code is as follows:
import java.util.*;
import java.lang.*;
public class HelloWorld{
public static void main(String args[]) {
Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
int n = sc.nextInt(2);
System.out.println(n);
}
I want know that what is radix argument? Also,what is its use?
The radix is the base in which the number will be interpreted. You can use it to make the nextInt method interpret the number as non-decimal.
For example, the following expects a number in binary:
s.nextInt(2)
> 11111 //input
31 //result in decimal
And this expects a hex number:
s.nextInt(16)
> abc12 //input
703506 //result in decimal
You'll also be interested to see other methods using a radix, such as Integer.toString(int, int), Integer.parseInt(String, int), which format/parse numbers in a specified radix (similar methods are provided by Long, Short, etc)
