boolean isValid;
String words="dork nerd";
String adjective;
do
{
System.out.print(" Enter a name :");
adjective=scan.next();
System.out.println(name1);
isValid=adjective.contains(words);
System.out.println(isValid);
}while(isValid);
I want to censor user's input.It seems like String contains method doesn't work,since every time i enter one of the censored word still i am getting out of the loop.

isValid = words.contains(adjective);
Variable isValid tells you, does your String "dork nerd" contains your input or not.
