Pause between inputs

[El Bigote]

I have a program I am writing for a class. I need it to accept three inputs, and it does that now. But it asks for all three at once and it takes all three at once. I need it to request the first input, receive that, request the second, receive that, and then request the third, then give the output. I hate to ask such a general question like "How do I do this." Can someone point me in the right direction without saying "Do it like this?" Thanks, Dennis

CODE FOLLOWS:

import java.util.Scanner;


public class Calendar
{

// obtain three integers
public static void main(String args[])
{


// create Scanner for input from command window
Scanner input = new Scanner( System.in );

// prompt for and input three integers
System.out.print( "Enter a Year, 1800 or later: \n" );
System.out.print( "Enter the number of the Month: \n" );
System.out.print( "Enter the number of the Day: \n" );

int num1 = input.nextInt(); // read first int
int num2 = input.nextInt(); // read second int
int num3 = input.nextInt(); // read third int


if ( num1 <= 1799 )
{
System.out.println("Please choose a valid year.");
} else {
System.out.println("You chose: ");
System.out.println(num1 + ".");
}

if ( num2 < 13 )
{
System.out.println("You chose: ");
System.out.println(num2 + ".");
} else {
System.out.println("Please choose a valid number for month.");
}

if ( num3 < 32 )
{
System.out.println("You chose: ");
System.out.println(num3 + ".");
} else {
System.out.println("Please choose a valid number for day.");
}


}

}

Actually, I solved it by doing the following

// prompt for and input integers for year and month
System.out.print( "Enter a Year, 1800 or later: \n" );
int num1 = input.nextInt(); // read first int
System.out.print( "Enter the number of the Month: \n" );
int num2 = input.nextInt(); // read second int
System.out.print( "Enter the number of the Day: \n" );
int num3 = input.nextInt(); // read third int

This seems to be much easier and much less involved.
