Answer 1

You can build it from this.
* BTimer - a Timer that counts backwords
public class BTimer{
     private int count;
     public BTimer(int seconds){
          this.count=seconds;
      * start the timer
     public void start(){
          while(count>=0){
               System.out.println(count);
               try{
                    Thread.currentThread().sleep(1000); 
               catch(Exception e){}
               count--;
          System.out.println("Timer Over"); 
     public static void main(String a[]){
          new BTimer(6).start();       
}
