// Create a Scanner object to read input from the console

Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in);
// Prompt the user to enter a year
System.out.print(“Enter a year: “);
// Read the integer input provided by the user
int year = scanner.nextInt();
// Check if the year is divisible by 100 and print the result

if (year % 100 == 0) {
System.out.println(year + “ is a century year.”);
} else {
System.out.println(year + “ is not a century year.”);

}
// Close the scanner object to release system resources
scanner.close();
}
