Hi Friend,

There are lot of ways to input data from keyboard.You can use BufferedReader class, Scanner class, StreamTokenizer class and their methods.

*******Use BufferedReader class in main method in following way:******

try{
System.out.print("Enter String:");
BufferedReader input = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
String data= input.readLine();
System.out.print("You have entered: "+data);
}
catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}

*******Use Scanner class in main method in following way:*******
String name;
Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Enter String:");
name = in.nextLine();
in.close();
System.out.println("You have entered: " + name);
}
********Use StreamTokenizer class in main method in following way:*******
StreamTokenizer Input=new StreamTokenizer(System.in);
try {
System.out.print(" Enter String: ");
Input.nextToken();
System.out.println("You have entered:"+Input.sval);
}
catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
