Hi,
I am making a java program to make a countdown timer.
User enters time,then when time is up a message is printed.
How do I print the time on the same line?
Please tell me how to go about it.
Thanks.

read documentation on System.out.println()

Sir,
I am new at java ,so I dont know where to look for it.
I searched my notes ,but didn't find anything.
Please tell me where to find it.
Thanks

Just use google. Type System.out.println() java, or you could also try Java IO. Also, an easy way to 'count' would be

// X
Thread.getThread().sleep(1000); //waits for 1 second.
//If you print out right here, you can be sure that the time is extremely close to 1 second from X

Just use google. Type System.out.println() java, or you could also try Java IO. Also, an easy way to 'count' would be

// Read in the amount of time you want to wait in seconds, call it "time"
Thread.getThread().sleep(time * 1000); //waits for 1 second if time = 1.
//Print out the time you waited.

Edited.
