Answer 1

Try this:

/**
 * @(#)demo1.java
 *
 *
 * @author 
 * @version 1.00 2012/8/30
 */

import java.util.*;

public class demo1 
{
    Scanner s=new Scanner(System.in);

    String str;
    int key;

    void getdata()
    {
        System.out.println ("plase enter a string");
        str=s.next();
        System.out.println ("plase enter a key");
        key=s.nextInt();
    }

    void display()
    {
        char a;
        int j;
        for ( int i = 0; i < str.length(); ++i )
        {

            char c = str.charAt( i );
            j = (int) c + key;
            a= (char) j;

            System.out.print(a);  
        }

        public static void main(String[] args)
        {
            demo1 obj=new demo1();
            obj.getdata();
            obj.display();
        }
    }
}
