Alternate way to get integer at run time without using Scanner Class

InputInteger.java


import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;


public class InputInteger
{
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
  {
      InputStreamReader reader = new InputStreamReader(System.in);
BufferedReader buffer = new BufferedReader(reader);
System.out.println("\nType X : ");
String strX = buffer.readLine();  // instane method
int x = Integer.parseInt(strX); // class method
System.out.println("\nOutput X : " + x);
}
}
