Meaning of system.in

#1

why we write system.in when we are taking input from the user?

Hi Mansi

We write

Scanner scn = new Scanner(System.in)

while taking an input. Here .in is an object defined in the “Input Stream” class in System class. System.in in java means to take input from the keyboard or the user.
