I am puzzled by a note in the book I am reading (by Mala Gupta). Page 55 says "All java components you've heard of can be defined within a java class: import and package statements, variables.....". But the online oracle doc (tutorial) clearly says the following 2 statments:
"If present, package statement must be the very first line in a file"
"To import a specific member into the current file, put an import statement at the beginning of the file before any type definitions but after the package statement, if there is one. " (Here).
So, my question is, how can import and package be present inside a class ? (This seems to go against the 2 statements from oracle online tutorial).
