I want to make a prog like this:

<Ask the user to write, let's say 5 digits. For example "12345">

<Print it out with 3 spaces between each digit like "1 2 3 4 5">


So I how can I split the 5 digits to get 5 different variabels?

I'm pretty new in java, but have to start somewhere
Thx in advance

You could modify the input a little. You can require that the digits are delimited. That way, you can replace the delimiter with three spaces.

I'm not sure you can iterate through strings, though, so you wouldn't be able to just add the spaces on each iteration instead of delimiting the string. Look up the string formatting functions. You might find what you need.

I finally did it without using any String methods

I used the modular (%) to split them

Thx for suggestiosn anyway

imo i'd treat it as a string instead of a number.

convert the string input to a char array, then loop through the char array printing it and 3 spaces

yes this is the easiest solution.

but in this task I'm not allowed to do this as a String
