Google java.io.InputStreamReader and java.util.Scanner for some hints.

Cheers

just wondering, is "input" something built into jGRASP?

maybe you'd like to put 

Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);

at the beginning?

First....have you imported the Scanner class from thee java libraries?? 
u hv to import it to use it.....
try typing this at the beginning(even before the class statement):

import java.util.Scanner ; 

Then u should probably create an object called input before using it......use the statement SJ wrote.

Then it should work .   :D
