write method

[mandy fern]

How do I write a method in() to read numbers from the console?

[Cindy Glass]

Try something like this:

<font size=2.5>
import java.io.*;
class Test
{
    public static void main(String [] args) throws IOException
    {
        System.out.println("Please, give me an char:");
        BufferedReader consoleIn =
            new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
        String stringChar = consoleIn.readLine();
        char fromConsoleInput = stringChar.charAt(0);
        System.out.println("You gave me char: " +  fromConsoleInput + "!");
    }
}
