    Default how could I throw an exception in this case

    guys, I'm reading a formula from file like: 2 + 2 - ( 3 - 1 ) * 3 $, but I want to be able to throw an exception if there are two operands together like: 2 + 2 3 * 4 $ or if there are two operators together like: 2 + + 3 $.

    here's what I have so far, the operator part the program detects it, but I'm having problem with two operands together. I would like to throw the exception where "Bad Formula!..." is

    while(in.hasNext())
            {
                String next = in.next();
                do
                {
                    if (optor.isOperator(next)) 
                    {
                        processOptor(next);
                        oprandCount = 0;
                    } 
                    else 
                    {
                        if(oprandCount == 0)
                        {
                            oprand.push(Integer.parseInt(next));
                            strOut += next+" ";
                            oprandCount++;                        
                        }
                        else
                        {
                            System.out.println("Bad formula!...");
                            System.exit(0);
                        }
                    }                                   
                    next = in.next();
     
                    if(next.equals("$"))
                        processOptor(next);
     
                }while(!next.equals("$"));

    How about that?
