Input from Keyboard - urgent please

[Rashid Ali]

Dear participants
Could anybody suggest me how to take input from keyboard for just printing on screen in a very simple way.
Thanks
Rashid

You need to use System.in to get the console input. However you need to run it through a BufferedReader if you want to take in more than 1 char.

        BufferedReader consoleIn = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));        
        String stringInt = consoleIn.readLine();

Printing to the screen is even easier.
continueing Cindy's example:
System.out.println(stringInt);
