public static void main(String args[]) {
// create a scanner class object.
Scanner scanner = new Scanner(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
System.out.println("Enter your full name: ");

// read a line using scanner object.

String userName = scanner.nextLine();
System.out.println("Enter your full age: ");

// read an integer using scanner object.

int age = scanner.nextInt();

// print input values

System.out.println("User name : " + userName);
System.out.println("User age : " + age);
