[SOLVED] how do you output a string and change that string

how do you output a string and change that string

hello i am trying to create a specified amount of players in a game. I have looped the creation of players but everytime it loops it should go from making player1 to making player2 how do i construct a class which i defined in a separate file with that specific string ?

System.out.println("input starting monies in millions of dollaz");
double starterplayermoney = Double.valueOf(keyboard.nextLine());
System.out.println("input total players");
double doubletotalplayers = Double.valueOf(keyboard.nextLine()); 
int i = 1 ;
while(i<=doubletotalplayers){
    String playerstring = "player"+Integer.toString(i);
    player playerstring = new player();
    i++;    
}

Solution

You should use either an array or some collection of players. The thing is you are overwriting the reference to the player object in the next iteration here.

player playerString = new player();

Use an array like this:

Player [] playerString = new Player [2];
while( i <= doubletotalplayers){
playerString[i] = new Player();

}

Also, I am not sure why would you need a double value for number of players. Try using int.
