How can I read the input (numbers) using the java.util.Scanner class when the numbers are separated by any number of line breaks?

An example might be like the following:

23333 
.

332332

You can set multiline delimeter. Assuming you read your numbers from a file :

    Scanner scanner = new Scanner(new File("test.txt"));
    scanner.useDelimiter("[\r\n]+"); // for unix "\n" and windows "\r\n" endings

    while (scanner.hasNextInt()) {
        int x = scanner.nextInt();
        System.out.println("read number = " + x);
    }

    scanner.close();
