HackerRank Java Static Initializer Block solution

In this HackerRank Java Static Initializer Block problem in a java programming language, You are given a class Solution with the main method. Complete the given code so that it outputs the area of a parallelogram with breadth B and height H. You should read the variables from the standard input.

If B<=0 or H<=0, the output should be “java.lang.Exception: Breadth and height must be positive” without quotes.

  1. I have a simple solution.
    Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
    int B, H;
    B = sc.nextInt();
    sc.nextLine();
    H = sc.nextInt();
    sc.close();
    if (B > 0 && H > 0) {
    int area = B * H;
    System.out.print(area);
    } else if (B <= 0 || H <= 0) {

    System.out.println("java.lang.Exception: Breadth and height must be positive");
    }
