Java how to take user input

Question

Can anyone please tell me what is wrong with my code, i was just trying to add scanner in java and it was showing me an error on package line

import java.util.Scanner;

package scaner;

public static void main(String[] args) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
   Scanner in = new Scanner (System.in);
   System.out.println("enter your number");
   int number;
   number = in.nextInt();
   System.out.println("your number is" + " " + number);
}

}

...and it was showing me an error on package line But package statements come before imports — g00se

First of all, the main method must be inside a class. Also, delete the "package scaner;" line. If you want, you can also simplify the code:

import java.util.Scanner;

public class className{
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.print("Enter a number: ");
        int number = sc.nextInt();
        System.out.println("Your number is: " + number);
    }
}

Good! But let's also stick to naming convention, while we're at it. The class should be called ClassName, with a capiital "C".
