Converting Meters To Feet - How To Print Decimals
Oct 1, 2014
I am making a small program that converts meters to feet. I want my answer to be printed with 2 decimals, but I am struggle. This is my current code, any takes on what needs to be changed and why?
import java.util.Scanner;
import java.text.DecimalFormat;
public class Chapter2PE3 {
public static void main (String[]args){
Scanner input = new Scanner (System.in);

I can get this program to run and compile, however, upon printing, I have the lastnumber from each table printing on the next line under their respective tables.
public class Lab6 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
double foot = 0;
double meter = 0;
System.out.println(" Feet Meters");
System.out.println(footToMeter(foot));
[Code]...
and what it prints is this:
Feet Meters
1.0 0.31
2.0 0.61
3.0 0.92
4.0 1.22
5.0 1.53
6.0 1.83
7.0 2.14
8.0 2.44
9.0 2.75
10.0 3.05
3.05
Meters Feet
20.0 65.57
25.0 81.97
30.0 98.36
35.0 114.75
40.0 131.15
45.0 147.54
50.0 163.93
55.0 180.33
60.0 196.72
65.0 213.11
213.11475409836066
how do i get rid of the last 3.05 and 213.114754...?

I have to do feet to meters code. here is the question. Write a Java program that reads a number in feet, converts the number to meters and displays the result. One foot is 0.305 meters.
here is my code :
import java.io.*;
class FeetToMeters
{
public static void main (String[] args) throws IOException
{
InputStreamReader inStream = new InputStreamReader (System.in);
BufferedReader stdin = new BufferedReader (inStream);
[Code] ....
I have seen alot of people use the scanner tool for the start of it but we never learned it as it is an online course but we may end up learning it farther on in our java programming. we have just started with the input and output stuff.

I have tried as much as I can to place code to give me only two decimals in answers but cannot get it to work not sure if placement or syntax.This is code so far and it works but gives answers to 8 decimals.

My program is supposed to operate on decimals because it concerns volume of packagings. I learnt that what normally is simple arithmetic (100 cm × 75 cm × 60 cm = 0.45 m³) in Java gives only approximate value (something like 0.44(9) m³ in this case). That's close enough so I probably shouldn't worry, but the thing is that although for one packaging the difference is barely visible—if at all—for thousands of packagings it'll make a difference. It'll be worse when I get to counting money.
I found two solutions:
1) Using integers and so-called decorative decimal point on display. I have a bad feeling about this, though.
2) Using BigDecimal.
Now, BigDecimal seems like a nice solution. I tried it and so far it looks okay. But just look at an excerpt from my program that I had to re-write (previously it looked perfectly fine as a single line):
volume = dimensions
.get("Length").multiply(dimensions.get("Width")
.multiply(dimensions.get("Height")))
.divide(new BigDecimal("1000000"));
I'm using a HashMap to store dimensions. I figured it'd make it easy for me to manage and display data later on.

I have made a program that is supposed to convert roman numerals to decimals. It is NOT supposed to convert decimals to roman numerals. The only problem it seems there is with the program is that it only adds and does NOT subtract. This causes some roman numeral conversions to be flawed. What can I try to fix this. Keep in mind that the reason some methods exist is because the directions for the code say that I have to make it this way.
Instructions:
Write a program that converts a number entered in Roman numerals to decimal. Your program should consist of a class called Roman. An object of type Roman should be able to do the following:
1) Store the number as a Roman numeral.
2) Convert and store the number into decimal.
3) Print the number as a Roman numeral or decimal number as requested by the user. (Be sure to over-ride the toString function).
4) Your class must contain the method romanToDecimal to convert a Roman numeral into its equivalent decimal number.
5) Test your program using the following Roman numerals: MCXIV, CCCLIX, and MDCLXVI.
This is what I have so far. It compiles and there are no errors, but it does not subtract I from X, or I from V and so on. For example,CMXLVII should be 947, but the program outputs 1067.
import javax.swing.*;
import java.util.*;
public class Roman{
private String roman;
private int decimal;
public int romanToDecimal(String s)

I'm trying to format two temperature values using String.format.
return String.format("% 5.1f", temperature) + 'u2109' + " / " + String.format("% 5.1f", temperature2) + 'u2109';
I need all of that to be combined into a single String.format and include the / and unicode symbols for degree fahrenheit. How String.format works so that I can figure out how to achieve that? I've tried a few websites but none of them explain it to the extent that I need to use it.

Pretty much what im trying to accomplish, i need to write a program that figures out the distance between one point to another, using miles and feet..
Heres how it has to look: "The distance from my uncles house is ___ miles, or ____ feet."
I can get it to run if i add only whole miles..but when i try to add 8.5 miles, and compile, the program flips out..I know i need to use a double somewhere, but cant figure it out, here is my code..
import java.util.Scanner; //required for input
public class feetToMiles {
public static void main (String[] args){
//Create new scanner object called input
Scanner input = new Scanner (System.in); //allows for input

I have a program where the user enters in the miles and then it is supposed to get multiplied by feet but I keep getting this error.
GetUserInfo.java:12: error: bad operand types for binary operator '*'
int total = name * feet;

first type: String
second type: int
1 error
This is my code so far :

1. Land Calculation
One acre of land is equivalent to 43,560 square feet. Write a program that calculates the number of square feet in a tract of land with 3.5 acres. Hint: Multiply the size of the tract of land (in acres) by the number of square feet in an acre to get the number of square feet in the tract.
a) You must have a variable called nrAcres where you will store the number of acres in the track.
b) Output must look as follows:
Size of land in acres: 3.5
Size of land in square feet: 152460
c) if the value of the variable nrAcres is changed the output should change accordingly. In other words: it would be wrong to have the following statement:
System.out.println("Size of land in square feet: 152460");
previous statement will print the correct output but will not change if you change the value of nrAcres.

double nrAcres = 3.5;
int feetInAcre = 43560;
double feetInTract = nrAcres * feetInAcre;
System.out.println("Size of land in acres: " + nrAcres + "
Size of land in square feet: " + feetInTract);
}
}
i tried to compile it but it says
error: class names, Land, are only accepted if annotation is explicitly requested 1 error

Basically the class is supposed to have a static variable that keeps track of the number of companies (numberOfCompanies) that have been created and a static method that returns the value of this variable. I need to have a constructor and a method to addEmployee, a method to printCompany, and a toString method. The addEmployee method will check that there is only 1 salesperson, 2 designers, and 4 manufacturing persons at a time and will check that there are no more than 7 employees of the company.
The addEmployee method will return a String indicating what the error is (i.e. "There is already a sales person in this company") or a null if the employee was added. If attempting to name a third company, an error message will be shown. what i have so far but my print company mmethod returns null company class :in which i am obliged to use inputdialog because it says that it cannot return void when i use the showmeassage diaolog.
company class:
import java.util.ArrayList;
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class Company {
private ArrayList<Employees> list ;
private static int numberOfCompanies;
[Code] ....
error message when print button is clicked:
Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.RuntimeException: JOptionPane: parentComponent does not have a valid parent

I'm converting from ASP to Java for a legacy site. I believe the first part of the if statement is right but I'm having an issue within the else staetment. I'm getting date is undefined, I've tried using getYear and getDate but have not been successful.
ASP:
If Request("action") = "results" Then
aMonth = Request("selMonth")
aDate = cint(Request("selDate"))
aYear = cint(Request("selYear"))
Else
aMonth = UCase(MonthName(Month(Date()),true))
aDate = Day(DateAdd("d",-1,date()))
aYear = Year(Date())
End If

I try to use below codes to convert Hex String "1111737999630745" to ASCII.
When I read the result in Notepad++ with HEX-Editor plugin, I find attached image which is different from above String, there is one additional c2 and I am quite confused.
Java Code:
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
Test strToHex = new Test();
File file = new File("D:/filename");
// if file doesnt exists, then create it
if (!file.exists()) {
file.createNewFile();

I was reading about the char data type in Java. I know that an unsigned 16 bit integer is used to represent a char. So we can write the assignments below:
char a = 65; // a will get the value 'A'
But the limit of the char value is 65535.
So I've tried out a few things with char and trying to understand them but I'm not sure how they work.
char a =(char) 70000;
char b = (char) -1;
In the first case I thought that 70000 % 65535 would happen internally and the unicode character present at that location would get stored in 'a' but if I do that I get the answer of 70000 % 65535 as 4465. But when I display 'a' it shows me the output as '?'. Clearly '?' isn't at 4465.
In the second case I have no clue what's happening but somehow when I display 'b' it shows me '?' again.

I have this project due and its asking that i print out what type of triangle it is when the user inputs 3 sides. I have most of it done and working, but it pops up different windows instead of using one window for everything. The assignment says it needs all the final info to be in one window. The boolean is coming from another method. I'm unsure how to get it into a string (Or if that's what i have to do). The method must return a boolean true/false.
import javax.swing.*;
public class Triangle {

In my Java class, the last assignment we had to turn in was to create a program that would take a users input and create a new type of animal. I went through the different steps in the instructions, and everything seemed to be going well up until the point where we actually took the users input and created the new animal. Specifically, I kept getting an error stating that I could convert a String to an animal.
I'm attaching the main class (Animal), one of my animal classes (Bird) and the class where I'm getting the error (AnimalStuff). I turned the program in as is, so what's done is done, but I'd like to learn what I'm doing wrong and what I can do better. I do know that the loop in AnimalStuff is wrong as it doesn't work right either, but I'm more concerned about the conversion from String to animal, as the entire program depended on this to work, and it doesn't.
public class Animal {
/**
* @param args the command line arguments
*/
public static void main(String[] args) {
}
public static String kind;
public static String integument;
[code]....
Is there anything that jumps out at to what I'm doing absolutely wrong?

I've started writing a new program that Scans for some strings. I want to specify a random Integer to those Strings in order to do my desired idea. what should I do?!! my codes are here :
import java.util.Random;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Draw {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("This Program is written to solve little problems in families cause of doing unwanted works!!");
[code].....
now I want to Specify an Integer to each person that has been scanned! for example if the first person is " David " , which is a String, in the next step :
Random randomNumber = new Random();
randomNumber.NextInt(101);
int David = randomNumber.NextInt(101);
I want to what should I do?

Technically, when you run the program, a gif page appears (that I put as a placeholder) and when you press the letter 'n' JCreator runs the program, displaying a character P on a .txt field made using the Notepad on Windows. You can move it left, right, down, and up andf it will move accordinly. However, each time I make such action, the compiler has to rewrite to whole .txt field with the new position.
My former tutor said that in order for it to be "real-time", we have to use an applet.
