How to get input from the keyboard to the variable

Answer 1

import java.util.Scanner;

public class Anything{
public static void main(String[] args){
Scanner anyOtherThing = new Scanner(System.in);
String input=anyOtherThing.next();
}}
Hence input has required input (LOL)

ALSO, if you want an integer input, replace last line by,
int input=anyOtherName.nextInt();

if its double then nextDouble();. etc...

Answer 2

use scanner or bufferReader

Answer 3

When using this syntax it throws an error that scanner cannot be resolved to a type

Answer 4

change next() to nextLine();

Answer 5

Answer 6
