Calculate Tax Payments Based On Income And Filing Status - Handling Input Mismatch Exception
Nov 27, 2014
I have written the following code to calculate tax payments based on income and filing status :
import java.util.Scanner;
public class computeTax {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
// prompt for filing status
System.out.println("enter '0' for single filer,");
[Code] ....
The while loop initiated on line 21 is there so that in case the wrong input is given at the prompt given in line 24, the program outputs "please type the right answer" with the command on line 254 before looping back to line 24 and prompting the user to enter his status number. The program works as long as the input at line 28 is an integer. Not surprisingly if the erroneous input here is not an integer, the program outputs the following error message :
Exception in thread "main" java.util.InputMismatchException
at java.util.Scanner.throwFor(Scanner.java:909)
at java.util.Scanner.next(Scanner.java:1530)
at java.util.Scanner.nextInt(Scanner.java:2160)
at java.util.Scanner.nextInt(Scanner.java:2119)
at computeTax.main(computeTax.java:28
To try to solve this I used the Try / Catch technique with the following version of the code :
import java.util.Scanner;
public class computeTax {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
// prompt for filing status
System.out.println("enter '0' for single filer,");
[Code] ....

I'm writing some code which calculates the tax payable based on income, and I need to have a separate method which then calculates the income AFTER the tax has been deducted. I've done this quite easily by re-writing the code in the next method, however is there a more efficient way around this where I can pass the values from the first method to do the calculation...
public class TaxCalculator {
// Main method calling taxpayablereturn and taxafterdeduction
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.print("Tax Payable = £"
+ TaxCalculator.taxpayablereturn(570));
[Code] ......

I know I can calculate the sum of squares as such:
// SumSquares.java: calculate the sum of two squares
class SumSquares {
static int sumSquares(int a, int B)/>/> {
int asquare;
int bsquare;
[Code] .....
But how can I modify the code so that it inputs a list of integer values in the range of -100 to 100 from the keyboard and computes the sum of the squares input values. And how would I go about using exception handling to ensure that the input values are in range and are legal integers.

I am trying to learn how to use file input/output in addition to exception handling... The problem is my textbook wrote this chapter for a version of Java that hasn't come out yet, so everything I do "according to the textbook" doesn't work. any feedback on correcting these exception errors because I am not sure what is causing them or how to fix them.
I was able to have it display the name of the book in the Book.txt file, but when I added the second part if the file doesn't exist, that's when the errors came up and it wouldn't compile.
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
public class DisplayBook
{
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
File book = new File("Book.txt");
FileInputStream in = new FileInputStream(book);
[Code]...
These are the compilation error messages I am receiving: (I have managed to get it down from 7 errors to just 4, but now I'm stuck)
DisplayBook.java:15: error: unreported exception IOException; must be caught or declared to be thrown
while ((letter = in.read()) != -1) //if file exists, displays book title
^
DisplayBook.java:24: error: unreported exception FileNotFoundException; must be caught or declared to be thrown
[Code] ....
4 errors

I have studied about the hierarchy of exception classes in which Throwable class comes at the top and two of its direct subclasses are Error and Exception..I just want to ask if in some code snippet we throw an instance of Error or its subclass within the try catch block then will that be also called "exception handling" ? I am asking this because Error class is not a child class of Exception therefore cant be said an Exception, therefore handling the same should not be called exception handling

I was giving a quick skim to some tutorials on the internet where I have found the exception that is handled is also declared in the throws clause of the method wrapping the try-catch block. For a code representation consider the following:
public void methodName() throws IOException {
try {
...
} catch (IOException ex) {
.... TODO handle exception
}
}

Is there a special mechanism through which exception can be handled in a constructor?
Suppose while creation of an object there occurred an exception while creating an object, and the object is half constructed. How do we make sure we handle this kind of exceptions in a constructor?

For one of my last labs for the semester, my professor is having the class go back to our very first program and apply some of the exception handling that we just recently learned about. Here's my improved code so far:
Java Code: import java.util.*;
import java.lang.*;
public class Lab2Part1 {
public static void main (String [] args) {
Scanner input = new Scanner (System.in);
[code]....
My code compiles fine, but even if I enter an integer or a double, it saves the number as a string, and prints that out as the name. Is there any way to get around this? Or do I need to use something besides a try-catch?

I have been working on a problem dealing with exception handling and text input output for a few days now. The exercise is a two part exercise. The first part of the exercise I have to write a program to display the total salary for assistant professors, associate professors, full professors, and all faculty, respectively, and display the average salary for assistant professors, associate professors, full professors, and all faculty, respectfully using the what is posted on the [URL] .... Each line in the file consists of a faculty member's first name, last name, rank, and salary. The second part of the exercise I have to take my code and change it so that it
-lets the user enter the name of the file to be read,
-Uses a try-catch block to handle the FileNotFoundException displaying instead The file already exists..
... Use a second catch block to ignore any other exception thrown.
... Design your code so that, if the user enters a file that does not exist, the program prompts the user to enter again a file name.
and I need to Note: In order to catch the FileNotFoundException, you need to include import
java.io.FileNotFoundException;
package pkg14.pkg25;
import java.util.Scanner;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.net.MalformedURLException;
import java.net.URL;

This program is for a swimming pool filling service company. They charge 2 cents per gallon and $50 per hour to fill a pool. The truck can fill at a rate of 730 gallons per hour.
Create the Pool class that calculates the cost to fill a pool based on it's Shape, length, width and depth. (Input order is S L W D)
The pool class will need data fields for String shape, double length, double width, double depth, static double GallonsPerSqFoot = 7.4805, static double price per gallon = .02, static double FillingFeePerHour = 50.0, and static double FillingRate = 730gal/hr.
Create a No-Arg constructor and a constructor that accepts the non-static values, and has the methods: getShape, getLength, getWidth, getDepth, getGallons, getHours, getFillingFeePerHour, getHourlyCost and getTotalCost.
At the end of the class, create a main() method that asks for the input and returns the output based on the Pool class gets.. methods.
The shape options are oblong or rectangle. (A round pool would be oblong with the same width and height, a square pool would have the same width and height)
Formulas:
Rectangle cubic ft = length * width * depth.
Oblong cubic ft= ((Math.PI * Math.pow(width/2,2)* depth) +((length-width) * width * depth))
Gallons = cubic ft * 7.4805.
hours = total gallons/730.
Total cost = (total Gallons * .02)+(hours * $50)
Example Output
An oblong pool 18.00 feet long by 12.00 feet wide and 5.00 feet deep will use 6923.10 gallons of water and take 9.48 hours to fill. The total cost will be 612.65.
Here is my code:
import java.util.Scanner;
import java.util.*;
public class Pool
{
private String poolshape1 = "oblong";
private String poolshape1 = "rectangle";
private double length;
private double width;
private double depth;
private static double GallonsPerSqFoot = 7.4805;
