in this program, you will learn how to enter data while the program is running

by using the Scanner class

enter the following command in your code winder BEFORE the myAge class:

import java.util.Scanner

the Scanner class is needed for input, and Scanner is part of the java.util package

inside your myAge class, in$-$between the curly brackets:

enter this command: Scanner input $=$ new Scanner$($System$.$in$)$;

this command makes input available to this class

next, enter a command that prompts the user to enter their age $($use the System.out.print command, with the prompt inside parentheses, and in quotes$).$

next command: int age $=$ input.nextInt$()$;

this command will pause the program, while it waits for input

final command: use a System.out.print command to display a sentence that says "You are $"+$ age, which should confirm the age you input

save and run your program

to input your age, go to the output window and you should see your prompt

click after the prompt and key in your age; enter

sample program output: Enter your age:

$55$

You are $55$
