Didn't your course come with a textbook?

I think what you meant is a BufferedInputStream or BufferedReader.

If you don't specify the buffer size, you will get 8192.

You can answer questions like this not covered in the Javadoc by
looking in src.zip at the source code.

look in BufferedReader for
private static int defaultCharBufferSize = 8192;

well if you think like that, then why don't/didn't you recommend a
good textbook to him that has the answer?

Your question doesn't make sense. What do you mean by "bufferclass"?
There is no such commonly used term in Java.

perhaps he was trying to ask about a 'default' number of bytes read
when you do a
bufferedReader.read(char[] cbuf,.............);

In which case there is no default. The number of bytes read is the
lesser of the number of bytes that are available without blocking (when
that number is non-zero), and the size of the array.
