You can use any of the following options based on the requirements.
Scanner
class
import java.util.Scanner; //... Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in); String s = scan.next(); int i = scan.nextInt();
BufferedReader
and InputStreamReader
classes
import java.io.BufferedReader; import java.io.InputStreamReader; //... BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in)); String s = br.readLine(); int i = Integer.parseInt(s);
DataInputStream
class
import java.io.DataInputStream; //... DataInputStream dis = new DataInputStream(System.in); int i = dis.readInt();
The readLine
method from the DataInputStream
class has been deprecated. To get String value, you should use the previous solution with BufferedReader
Console
class
import java.io.Console; //... Console console = System.console(); String s = console.readLine(); int i = Integer.parseInt(console.readLine());
Apparently, this method does not work well in some IDEs.
