How to read multiple Integer values from a single line of input in Java?

Question

I am working on a program and I want to allow a user to enter multiple integers when prompted. I have tried to use a scanner but I found that it only stores the first integer entered by the user. For example:

Enter multiple integers: 1 3 5

The scanner will only get the first integer 1. Is it possible to get all 3 different integers from one line and be able to use them later? These integers are the positions of data in a linked list I need to manipulate based on the users input. I cannot post my source code, but I wanted to know if this is possible.

Answer 1

I use it all the time on hackerrank/leetcode

    BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));     String  lines = br.readLine();                  String[] strs = lines.trim().split("\\s+");                  for (int i = 0; i < strs.length; i++) {     a[i] = Integer.parseInt(strs[i]);     }
