    The import statement allows coding just the class name vs having to code the full package name.
    For example to declare a Scanner class object without an import statement requires the full class name:
       java.util.Scanner scnr = ...
    With the import statement:
     import java.util.Scanner;
    the code can use just the class name:
       Scanner scnr = ...
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
