How does Java handle string input differently, and how does it relate to `java generic interface`?

I’ve worked with Java input handling quite a bit, and one approach I often fall back on is using a java generic interface. It helps cleanly abstract input logic.

public interface InputHandler<T> {
    T readInput(Scanner sc);
}

This way, you can create different implementations for reading integers (sc.nextInt()) or strings (sc.nextLine()), while keeping your input code neat and scalable.
