why is it that we leave gaps between certain codes?

Question

example:

import java.util.Scanner;

class MyClass {
public static void main(String[ ] args) {
Scanner myVar = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println(myVar.nextLine());
}
}

i.e the gap between import and class

Answer 1

Blank lines are optional and entirely up to the author of the code. However, adding blank lines helps to make the code more readable by visually separating different components.

Answer 2

oh ok thanks.
