Example 1

import java.util.*;
public class ScannerHasNextLineExample1 {  
    public static void main(String args[]){   	
    	  String str = "Facebook.com \n 1 + 1 = 2.0 \n JavaTpoint.com ";
        Scanner scanner = new Scanner(str);
        //Print the next line
        System.out.println(scanner.nextLine());
        //Check if there is a next line again
        System.out.println(scanner.hasNextLine());
        System.out.println(scanner.nextLine());
        //Check if there is a next line again
        System.out.println(scanner.hasNextLine());
        System.out.println(scanner.nextLine());
        //Check if there is a next line again
        System.out.println(scanner.hasNextLine());
        scanner.close();
	  }  
}

Output:

Facebook.com 
true
 1 + 1 = 2.0 
true
 JavaTpoint.com 
false

Example 2

import java.util.*;
import java.util.regex.MatchResult;
public class ScannerHasNextLineExample2 {  
	public static void main(String[] args) {
        Scanner s = new Scanner("Shortest path(3)::RV3280-RV0973C-RV2888C"+ "\nShortest path(2)::RV3280-RV2502C"+ "\nShortest path(3)::RV3280-RV2501C-RV1263"+ "\nShortest path(3)::RV2363-Rv3285-RV3280");
        while (s.hasNextLine()) {
        	//Look for this pattern at each line
            s.findInLine("Shortest path\\((\\d+)\\)::(\\w+).*-(\\w+)");
            //Results from
            MatchResult result = s.match(); 
            for (int i = 1; i <= result.groupCount(); i++) {
                System.out.println(result.group(i));
            }
            s.nextLine();
        }
        s.close();       
        }
}

Output:

RV3280

Example 3

import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.util.*;
public class ScannerHasNextLineExample3 {  
	public static void main(String[] args) throws FileNotFoundException {
		//Declare File object
		File file = new File("/home/javatpoint/Desktop/ABHISHEK/AngularJS/Index/abc.txt");
		//Create scanner object
		Scanner scan = new Scanner(file);
		//Iterate through the file line by line
		while(scan.hasNextLine()){
			//Print the token
			System.out.println(scan.next());
		}
		scan.close();
	}
}
