So how do you declare an object?

Question

Okay I have a program I'm trying to build that lets me navigate between menus...
Main Menu starts up:
(Unimportant)
Then it takes me to another Menu.
When this is over I want to go back:
   System.out.println("Select: ");
        System.out.println("1: to Return to the main menu");
        System.out.println("or");
        System.out.println("0 to Exit");
     if(input.nextInt()==1){
         main(); // <-- error here
     else if(input.nextInt()==0){
         System.exit(0);
        }   It doesnt find the main method because I didn't declare it as an object at the top...
How do I do that?

Nah, this has nothing to do with declaring an object, and you really don't want to do this. What you really want to do is to have a loop of some kind, say a while loop and have the loop repeat until the user presses "0". Something like so:
    public static void main(String[] args)
        boolean done = false;
        while (!done)
            if(input.nextInt() == 0)
                done = true;
