Using java's scanner input the code needs to return certain output as such:

Expected Output
Download
  • String: Welcome to HackerRank's Java tutorials!

  • Double: 3.1415

  • Int: 42
Here is my code:
public static void main(String[] args) {

Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
int count = 1;
String typeCase = "";



while (count<4) {

if (!sc.hasNext("[0-9]+[\\.]?[0-9]*") || sc.hasNext(":ascii:")) {

typeCase = "String:";
count++;

} else if (sc.hasNextInt()) {

typeCase = "Int:";
count++;

} else if (sc.hasNextDouble()) {


typeCase = "Double:";
count++;

}

switch (typeCase) {
case "String:":
typeCase = "String: ";
System.out.println(typeCase + sc.nextLine());
break;
case "Int:":
typeCase = "Int: ";
System.out.println(typeCase + sc.nextInt());
break;
case "Double:":
typeCase = "Double: ";
System.out.println(typeCase + sc.nextDouble());
break;
}
}
}

Thank you guys in advance.

The while statement requires count >= 4 to exit, but incrementing count isn't guaranteed to happen.
