[Solved] Scanner not working? [closed]

Question

if (kirill.equals(kirill2)){

kirill is the Scanner object, not the string. Try something like this:

Scanner kirill = new Scanner(System.in);
String userInput = kirill.next();
if (userInput.equals("Java")){
    ...

Also, note that your code will print “yes” if the user types “Java is a programming langauge.” If you only want it to validate with just “Java,” replace next with nextLine.
