I tried a for loop with an if in it but I didn't know what I should've put in if(?), so then I went for using try and a catch and imported InputMismatchException. I then tried making an array with numbers from 0 to 9(I am a noob and don't know what I am doing) and used a for loop with and if, I know I could use a while. Please help me recent them from entering a string instead of numbers.

// fields
private String firstName, lastName;// creates both firstName and lastName as string and private fields

this("", "", 0, 0);// this sets the default values for each one of the fields
}
