Java and Octal numbers

I want a user to input an integer and then convert the number. How do I tell Java that the input integer is base 8? As, I can't append a '0' to the front of an integer variable.

Thanks for the suggestion. I figured it out. The answer I was looking for lies in the javadoc for the Scanner class.

Integer.parseInt("20", 8);

will treat the input as octal. In general, the second parameter is the base.
