Also note that you don't have to import Math at all. Everything in java.lang is imported automatically. A better example would be something like an ArrayList More on stackoverflow.com

Please ensure that: Your code is properly formatted as code block - see the sidebar (About on mobile) for instructions You include any and all error messages in full You ask clear questions You demonstrate effort in solving your question/problem - plain posting your assignments is forbidden (and such posts will be removed) as is asking for or giving solutions. Trying to solve problems on your own is a very important skill. Also, see Learn to help yourself in the sidebar If any of the above points is not met, your post can and will be removed without further warning. Code is to be formatted as code block (old reddit: empty line before the code, each code line indented by 4 spaces, new reddit: https://i.imgur.com/EJ7tqek.png ) or linked via an external code hoster, like pastebin.com, github gist, github, bitbucket, gitlab, etc. Please, do not use triple backticks (```) as they will only render properly on new reddit, not on old reddit. Code blocks look like this: public class HelloWorld { public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println("Hello World!"); } } You do not need to repost unless your post has been removed by a moderator. Just use the edit function of reddit to make sure your post complies with the above.

It's always legal to use the fullly qualified name of something instead of importing it in Java source code, like java.lang.System.out.println(libraries.standard.READ_LINE). JVM bytecode also does not have an "import" concept and always refers to things by their fully qualified names. If you'd like to compile to Java source code, you could first compile to an intermediate Java abstract syntax tree that always refers to things with their fully qualified names, then as one of the last operations iterate over the tree, hoisting as many names into import statements as you can. (Sortof the reverse operation of "name resolution" which is one of the first things a compiler does.) So basically this is a code formatting question. Note that Java source does not allow importing two things with the same name, so in some cases you won't be able to hoist all the imports. That's ok. More on reddit.com
