title: Create java list from user input
body: <p>I have a bit of a unique problem to solve and I'm stuck.</p>
  
  <p>I need to design a program that does the following:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Inputs two series of numbers (integers) from the user.</li>
  <li>Creates two lists based on each series.</li>
  <li>The length of each list must be determined by the value of the first digit of each series.</li>
  <li>The rest of the digits of each series of numbers becomes the contents of the list.</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Where I'm getting stuck is in trying to isolate the first number of the series to use it to determine the length of the list.</p>
