Hi, JAVA newbie here. I have recently tried to create a registration program as shown by the code sample above. I came to realise that the final sc.nextLine() is used to absorb the enter input from user after they typed their car type. When I change it to sc.next(), the program seems to accept the first input i.e. 1 and when i press enter the program doesnt stop reading input. However, when i type in a second character and press enter again, the program seems to proceed and repeat the loop.
