/*
Summary
I. BufferReader:

I.1. Reading from files:

	final String ThisFile = "Words.dat";  
	
	BufferedReader Entrance = 
	new BufferedReader(new FileReader (ThisFile));
	String TheLine = Entrance.readLine();
	System.out.prontln("TheLine");
	Entrance.close();

I.2. Reading from Keyboard: InputStreamReade is used.

	System.out.print("\n\t Enter a word: --> ");
	BufferedReader entranceW = 
	new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
	String TheWord = entranceW.readLine();		
	System.out.println("\n\tYou entered:" + TheWord);
	entranceW.close();
	
	System.out.print("\n\t Enter an integer: -->");
	BufferedReader entranceN = 
	new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
	int TheNumber = Integer.parseInt(entranceN.readLine());
	System.out.println("\n\tYou entered:" + TheNumber);
	entranceN.close();
	
	
II. Scanner:
	
II.1. Reading from files:

	Scanner Entrance = new Scanner(new FileReader(ThisFile));

II.2. Reading from Keyboard: Reading from Keyboard: 
InputStreamReade is not used.


	Scanner TheInput = new Scanner(System.in);
	int TheInteger;
	System.out.print("\n\tEnter an integer:--> ");
	TheInteger = TheInput.nextInt();
	System.out.println("\n\tYou entered: "+ TheInteger);
	
The values taken by Scanner class are:
SomeThing =  in.nextInt();
 = in.nextLong();
 = in.nextFloat();
= in.next();	
= in.nextDouble();
= in.nextLine();
= in.next();	//follows the previous and take its type	

Remarks:
		
1. To read from the keyboard, new InputStreamReader is not 
used as with Buffer Reader.
2. To read from a file, we instantiate a Scanner object 
with a FileReader object rather 
than System.in as in reading from the keyboard.
3. in.next is used for any following next.
4. The return carriage and blank space are considered as 
characters. In Java, they 
are called WhiteSpace.
5. When the declarations are not respected like :
int TheInteger;
TheInteger = in.next(); or TheInteger = in.nextLine();
an arror occurs.
6. When the type of the input is different from the 
declared type, an exception 
rises. The kind of exception is expressed as: 
Exception in thread "main" java.util.InputMismatchException
