How to guard the input effectively

[tong1]

/* The following programs are written to guard the input. The input is requested as an  non-negative integer.Is there other method to do so? */

/* Operation on DOS window: "PositiveInt1" receives a positive integer only.  */
import java.util.*;
public class PositiveInt1{

    static int factorial(int n){
        int fac=1;
        if ((n<0) || (n>12))
        return -1;
        for (int i=2; i<=n;i++)
        fac *=i;
        return fac;
    }

    n = in.nextInt();
    }catch(InputMismatchException e){

Is there other method

Yes, probably hundreds. You method is a bit more than is needed.
It could depend on your app's requirements

String[] input = {"a", "-1", "3"};

      for (int i=0; i < input.length; i++) {
         try{
           int val = Integer.parseInt(input[i]);
           if (val < 1)
             System.out.println("not positive integer: " + input[i]);
           else
             System.out.println("postive integer: " + input[i]);
         }catch(Exception x) {
           System.out.println("invalid integer:" + input[i]);
         }
      } // end for(i) thru input strings
