Addition program that displays the sum of two numbers

[Java Tip]

The Java program below reads two integers typed by a user at the keyboard, computes the sum of the values and displays the result.

Code:

import java.util.Scanner;

public class Addition
{
    // main method begins execution of Java application
    public static void main( String args[] )
    {
       // create Scanner to obtain input from command window
       Scanner input = new Scanner( System.in );            

       int number1; // first number to add   
       int number2; // second number to add  
       int sum; // sum of number1 and number2

       System.out.print( "Enter first integer: " ); // prompt
       number1 = input.nextInt(); // read first number from user

       System.out.print( "Enter second integer: " ); // prompt
       number2 = input.nextInt(); // read second number from user

       sum = number1 + number2; // add numbers
       System.out.printf( "Sum is %d\n", sum ); // display sum

    } // end method main

 } // end class Addition
