    The java command takes the complete name of the class which includes the package name:
    java com.DataFlair.StringInput.ScannerClassInput
    The java command needs to be entered in the directory that contains the path: com/DataFlair/StringInput/
    The path is used to find the ScannerClassInput.class file.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
