Now , step by step.

What does it mean System.in.read() that means it returns you every
character in bytes .

The char value 'a' equals 97 in bytes
'h' = 104, 'A' = 65 , Whitespace = 32, '4' = 52, enter = 13 and 10
(end of line depends from system), '9' = 57 and so on

characters of 0..9 , a..z, A..Z are reserved in range of (48 - 57
), (97 - 122), (65 - 90)
comma = 44, dot = 46 and so on

Use readLine() or read(byte[] b, int  start, int len) functions Or
do casting like (char)System.in.read();.
