Scanner is a class in java. util package used for obtaining the input of the primitive
types like int, double, etc. and strings.
Syntax:
import package. name. Class name; // Imports a single class
e.g., import java . util . Scanner ; //Only the Scanner class of
java . util package can
be used
class ScannerClassInput
{ …………………………….}
OR
import package. name.*; // Import the whole package
e.g., import java . util . * ; //all classes of java . util package
can be used
class ScannerClassInput
{ …………………………….}
Definition : The class that allows to input or read primitive data type (like
short, int ,float etc.) and String. It can be used to get input
from InputStream.
❑ The Scanner breaks input into tokens using white space as default
delimiter.
❑ The resulting tokens may then be converted into values of different
primitive type using various next methods.
❑ A token is a series of characters that ends with whitespace.
❑ A whitespace character can be a blank , tab character, carriage
return, or the end of the file.
INSTANTIATION OF SCANNER CLASS OBJECT
▪ Creating a Scanner class object is called instantiation.
▪ This can be done as follows:
E.g., Scanner sc = new Scanner ( System.in )
• new operator allocates memory for a Scanner object.
▪ In the above code, we are using the predefined System.in,

which is typically used in Java console programs to accept the
keyboard input and is one of several ways to read user input
from the keyboard.
 Use the following methods to accept primitive data types and
Strings.
Method Description
nextBoolean() Reads a boolean value from the user
nextByte() Reads a byte value from the user
nextShort() Reads a short value from the user
nextInt() Reads an int value from the user
nextLong() Reads a long value from the user
nextDouble() Reads a double value from the user
nextFloat() Reads a float value from the user
next() Reads a word from the user
nextLine() Reads multiple words from the user

 Use next () method to read one word
 using Scanner class object name
Example:
import java.util.Scanner;
class MyClass
{ public static void main ( String args [ ] )
{ Scanner sc = new Scanner ( System.in );
System.out.println ( “ Enter first name “ );
String name = sc.next();
System.out.println ( “ First name is: " + name );
}
}
 Use nextLine () method to read multiple word
✓ using Scanner class object name
Example:
class MyClass
{ public static void main ( )
{ Scanner sc = new Scanner ( System.in );
System.out.println ( “ Enter a sentence “ );
String str = sc.nextLine ();
System.out.println ( “ Given sentence : " + str );
}
}
Write a program to
accept user’s name ,
age and salary. Display
all the detail in a neat
format.
Write a program to accept user’s name , age and salary. Display all
the detail in a neat format.
class MyClass
{ public static void main ( String[] args )
{ Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Enter name, age and salary:");
String name = sc.nextLine(); // String input
char ch = name. charAt(0);
int age = sc.nextInt(); // Numerical input
double salary = sc.nextDouble();
System.out.println("Name : " + name);
System.out.println("First character of the name : "+ ch);
System.out.println("Age : " + age);
System.out.println("Salary : " + salary);
} }
Write a program to accept base and
height of a triangle. Calculate the area
of a triangle. Display all the detail in a
neat format.
Area = 1/2base x height

Write a program to accept radius of a sphere and
calculate volume of a sphere. Display all the details in
a neat format.

System.out.println(" Enter base and height of a Triangle:");
double b= sc.nextDouble();
double h= sc5.nextDouble();
double area=(b*h)/2;
System.out.println("Base and height of a Triangle are :" + b+ " \t" + h);
System.out.println(" Area of the triangle is :" +area );
}*/
HOME ASSIGNMENT
WAP to accept a two digit number. Calculate sum of the digits

and reverse the digits. Display all the details in a neat format.
E.g. Input = 27;
output : Sum :9
Reverse : 72

Write a program to accept radius of a sphere and calculate volume of a
sphere. Display all the details in a neat format.
V=4/3π r3
class Vol_sphere
{ public static void main ( String args [ ] )
{ double r = Double. parseDouble ( args[0] );
double vol = 4/3.0 * 22/7.0 * r * r * r ;
System.out.println(" Radius\t Volume of a cone ");
System.out.println ( r+ "\t“ + vol );
}
