java method help

I need help with a method. The method I've written is:

public void readBook(String bookReader, String book);

The method 开发者_运维知识库needs to show both strings of the argument in the console. What else do I need to do to get the method to work?

public void readBook(String bookReader, String book){
    System.out.println("Book Reader: " + bookReader);
    System.out.println("Book:" + book);
}

This should do it. I recomend google for questions like this though.

Once you've done the above i.e.

public void readBook(String bookReader, String book){ 
    System.out.println("Book Reader: " + bookReader);
    System.out.println("Book:" + book); 
}

...you need to call it from your main method (or wherever you want) like so:

readBook("The Book Reader", "The Books Name");

in your method body, use

System.out.println( bookReader );
System.out.println( book );

For printing them on separate lines

If all you want is to print the variables, try :

String SPACE = " ";  // can make it class level constant.
String separator = SPACE;  // can have different string, space is just an example
System.out.println(bookReader + separator + book);

There are lot of ways to embelish it.

There are two ways to print to the console

First:

System.out.print("Your string here");

Second:

System.out.println("Your string here");

The difference between the two is that the second will automatically place the output on a new line in the console.
