Closing the Scanner also closes the input stream it’s scanning — in this case System.in<\/code>. Hence, when you subsequently call getYear(), it finds the input stream System.in<\/code> already closed.<\/p>\n

One way to avoid this is to use the same Scanner in both methods, by passing it as an argument to the methods.<\/p>\n

From the Java API docs for Scanner.close()<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\n

public void close()<\/code><\/p>\n

Closes this scanner.<\/p>\n

If this scanner has not yet been closed then if its underlying readable also implements the Closeable<\/code> interface then the readable’s close method will be invoked. If this scanner is already closed then invoking this method will have no effect.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

By the way, the purpose of the loops in getMonth()<\/code> and getYear()<\/code> are unclear. If you want to continue scanning until a valid value is entered, then you want to include a call to Scanner.nextInt()<\/code> inside the loops. And consider using a do-while statement, since you know you want to read at least one value.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
