String input in program
<p>I can't find the answer in my book and it's an easy one but I'm missing something simple here. </p>

<p>I have a program where I ask the user "choose customer or employee C or E" Then after that I need to say if they picked C then do this or if they picked E do that.
I'm new and struggling so I know this is probably an easy thing but I'm not getting it.</p>

<pre><code>    Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
    system.out.println("choose c or e: ");

    if (in.equalsIgnoreCase("c"))
    {
    //do something
    }

    if (in.equalsIgnoreCase("e"))
    {
   // do something
    }
</code></pre>

<p>what am I doing wrong here?</p>
