    Hi, I am trying to do what really should be a simple task. My program asks a question, the user inputs and answer and then that repeats itself. I want the program to break the loop when the user input is RETURN only. So when no text is written and the user presses return it should break.

    I have made a scanner object and am trying to use
    Code:
    Scanner so = new Scanner(System.in);
    while (so.nextLine() !=null){
    ... do stuff		
    }
    I've also tried

    Code:
    BufferedReader myIn = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
    String word;
    while(true){
    word= myIn.readLine();
    	if(word==null)
    	break;
    				
    }



    What should I do? I want it to be short and well "correct", so it is safe(no continious loop or crashes).

    Thanks in advance!
