    Where did you see that: .readline? It is not valid java as you have coded it.
    There is a method with a similar name in the Java SE. To see where it is used, look in the Java SE API doc at this link: Java Platform SE 7
    At the top of the page is a link: Index that goes to a page where you can look up all the methods used in Java SE. Click on the R to get the pages of methods that start with R and then scroll down to readline

    Default Re: .readline

    To say in simple, it is the Method to read the Input Using the InputStream Class Object
    For example,
    DataInputStream dis=new DataInputStream(System.in);
    dis.readLine(args[0]);

    here args[0] is the first input through Console.
    every method begins with small letter. If it seems to be continuous 2 word, then the second word must be Capital Letter. Here in readLine(), "L"ine.. not readLine()
    Thank you

    Did you compile and execute the code you posted?

    Try to test your code before posting it. The posted code has MANY errors.
