PushbackReader

PushbackReader A character-stream reader that allows characters to be pushed back into the stream.

Abstract class for reading filtered character streams. The abstract class FilterReader itself provides default methods that pass all requests to the contained stream. Subclasses of FilterReader should override some of these methods and may also provide additional methods and fields.

Summary

Fields
`protected Reader`	`in` The underlying character-input stream.

Public methods
`void`	`close()` Closes the stream and releases any system resources associated with it.
`void`	`mark(int readAheadLimit)` Marks the present position in the stream.
`boolean`	`markSupported()` Tells whether this stream supports the mark() operation.
`int`	`read()` Reads a single character.
`int`	`read(char[] cbuf, int off, int len)` Reads characters into a portion of an array.
`boolean`	`ready()` Tells whether this stream is ready to be read.
`void`	`reset()` Resets the stream.
`long`	`skip(long n)` Skips characters.
