To obtain console input for your program you can use the <code class="language-java">Scanner</code> class
To obtain console input for your program you can use the `Scanner` class
First import the relevant library
<pre class="language-java"><code class="language-java">
```java
import java.util.Scanner;
</code></pre>
```
Then create a variable to hold the <code class="language-java">Scanner</code> object
Then create a variable to hold the `Scanner` object
<pre class="language-java"><code class="language-java">
```java
Scanner input;
input = new Scanner(System.in);

Inside the parenthesis, the <code class="language-java">Scanner</code> binds to the System input which is by default the console
