// Reading a string from console using a BufferedReader. 

Sample Coding 1:

import java.io.*;

class BRReadLines{
 public static void main(String[] args)throws IOException{
  String str;
  BufferedReader br=new BufferedReader(
     new InputStreamReader(System.in));

  System.out.println("Enter lines of text.\n Enter 'stop' to quit.");
  do {
   str=br.readLine();
  System.out.println(str);
    } while (!str.equals("stop"));
   } }
 

Sample Coding 2:

package filehandling1;

import java.io.*;

class BRReadLines {

    public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException {
        // Create a BufferedReader using System.in 
        BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
        String str;
        System.out.println("Enter lines of text.");
        System.out.println("Enter 'end' to quit.");
        str = br.readLine();
        while (!str.equals("end")) {
            System.out.println(str);
            str = br.readLine();
        }
    }
}
 

Sample Coding 3:

import java.io.*;

class BRReadLines {
  public static void main(String args[]) 
    throws IOException
  {
    // create a BufferedReader using System.in
    BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new 
                            InputStreamReader(System.in));
    String str;

    System.out.println("Enter lines of text.");
    System.out.println("Enter 'stop' to quit.");
    do {
      str = br.readLine();
      System.out.println(str);
    } while(!str.equals("stop"));
  }
