// Java code to illustrate countTokens() method
  
import java.util.*;
  
public class StringTokenizer_Demo1 {
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
  
        // Creating a StringTokenizer
        StringTokenizer str_arr
            = new StringTokenizer(
                "Lets practice at GeeksforGeeks");
  
        // Counting the tokens
        int count = str_arr.countTokens();
        System.out.println("Total number of Tokens: "
                           + count);
  
        // Print the tokens
        for (int i = 0; i < count; i++)
            System.out.println("token at [" + i + "] : "
                               + str_arr.nextToken());
    }
}
