Courses Plus Student 4,346 PointsI got "java.util.NoSuchElementException" error while trying to complete team work section question.
I applied a scanner in order to get user input. However it popped up with the error shown in the title.

Template tmpl = new Template(story);
promter.run(tmpl);

# This is essentially what I am testing
1. The user is prompted for a new string template (the one with the double underscores in it).
a. The prompter class has a new method that prompts for the story template, and that method is called.
2. The user is then prompted for each word that has been double underscored.
a. The answer is checked to see if it is contained in the censored words.
User is continually prompted until they enter a valid word
3. The user is presented with the completed story

Basically I think the error is because you have not done the first task mentioned in the pseudo code:
1. The user is prompted for a new string template (the one with the double underscores in it).
** a. The prompter class has a new method that prompts for the story template, and that method is called.**
You still using the default example of story:
String story = "Thanks __name__ for helping me out. You are really a __adjective__ __noun__ and I owe you a __noun__.";
Instead in the pseudo code you were asked to prompt (ask) the user to input their own story by using the same rules applied to the example.
I hope this will help you a little. Oh By the way since the prompt already declared mReader as BufferedReader you should use it instead of scanner as the user input reader.
I hope this can give some hints to pass the assignment. Please feel free to ask more if you still have a problem related to the task.
