Import Statements

Import statements Come in three flavors:

import package.class; // 1

import package.*; // 2
import java.lang.*; // 3 (Implicit)

What it does: provides the Java interpreter with a reference to other classes necessary

for the compilation of the

present .java file

What it does NOT: actually

"import" or ”#include" the

code. There’s no overhead

or object bloat.
