Introduction to Programming

Single class import

To avoid using the fully qualified class or interface name in the code, we can add an import statement in the space between the package declaration and class or interface declaration:

package com.packt.javapath;import com.packt.javapath.something.SomeClass;public class MyClass {  //...   SomeClass someClass = new SomeClass();  //...}

As you can see, the import statement allows avoiding usage of the fully qualified class name, which makes the code easier to read.
