import java.io.*;

public class Main {

   public static void main(String[] args) {

      byte[] arrByte = new byte[1024];

      byte[] byteArray = new byte[]{'j', 'a', 'v', 'a', '2','s','.','c','o','m'};


      InputStream is = new ByteArrayInputStream(byteArray);
      PushbackInputStream pis = new PushbackInputStream(is);
      try {
         pis.skip(1);

         for (int i = 0; i < byteArray.length - 1; i++) {

            arrByte[i] = (byte) pis.read();

            System.out.println((char) arrByte[i]);
         }

      } catch (Exception ex) {
         ex.printStackTrace();
