User Input In Miles And It Is Supposed To Multiply With Feet
Sep 21, 2014
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 :
import java.util.Scanner;
public class GetUserInfo
{
public static void main(String[] args) {
String name;
int miles;
[Code] ....

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
[Code] ....

I would like to multiply the amount stated inside program by user input. I currently have
public static void setTicket(double ticket)
{
//if statement for tickets
if (ticket == 1)
Ticket = 10.00;
else if (ticket == 2)
Ticket = 20.00;
else if ( ticket == 3)
Ticket = 30.00;
The user should enter 2 and the value should show 20.00. This does work however im looking for a way to say enter 2 = 2*10 instead of stating each value individually.

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...?

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.

Write a java program that will ask a user to input grades until the user inputs the sentinel value -1. The program should test each input to determine whether 0<=grade<=100. If the grade entered is within this range, the program should print "Grade accepted;" if not, the program should print "Invalid input".

Where do I input this segment?
Scanner user_input = new Scanner( System.in );// This line goes at the top with the other global variables
public void getUserInput(){
System.out.print("Enter litres: ");
litres = user_input.nextDouble( );
System.out.print("Enter mileage: ");
mileage = user_input.nextDouble( );
System.out.print("Enter speed: ");
speed = user_input.nextDouble( );

1. Write a program that displays the following table (note that 1 mile is 1.609 kilometer):
Miles Kilometers
1 1.609
2 3.218
3 4.827
...
...
9 14.481
10 16.090
Note: use for loop and printf() to format your output
public class MilesandKilometers {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Miles Kilometers");
int miles = 1
;
for (int i = 1; i <= 10; miles++, i++) {
System.out.println(miles + " " + miles * 1.609);
}
}
}
how to make it like the instruction said " use for loop and printf() to format your output".

My assignment is to write some code that will multiply every number in an array by 2 and print it out. This is using a site zyante which is a interactive online book kind of thing.
I have tried For (i=0; I < 8; i++) with like userVals = userVals * 2) }
And it doesn't like that so i'm guessing i am no where close to right. The chapter doesn't give me any example of doing anything close to this so i am completely lost on what i have to do.
This is the program :
import java.util.Scanner;
public class NegativeToZero {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner scnr = new Scanner(System.in);
final int NUM_ELEMENTS = 8; // Number of elements

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 :

public static void main (String[] args) throws IOException
{
InputStreamReader inStream = new InputStreamReader (System.in);
BufferedReader stdin = new BufferedReader (inStream);

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 am trying to make a program to multiplies two numbers without using the "*" operator. My idea was to add x number y amount of times, which is the same as multiplication. I did this with a for loop, but zero is always returned as the answer. How can I fix this?
public class secondMult {
public static void main(String[] args){
System.out.println(multWithSum(4,5));
}
public static int multWithSum(int x, int y){
int sum = 0;
for(int i = 0; i==y;i++){
sum = sum + x;
}
return sum;

I was suppose to create a simple Java program for calculating the area of a rectangle (height * width). Then check the user’s input, and make sure that they enter in a positive integer, and letting them try again if they enter in a negative number. (I'm not sure how to get them to try again.
I am suppose to use an "if" statements and indeterminate loops to achieve the solution. The program will have the following requirements:
1. Ask the user to enter in both a height and width (as an integer)
2. If the user enters in a negative number, display an error
3. If the user enters in a negative number, give them another chance to enter in the correct value
4. Calculate the area and display to the screen once two positive integers have been entered.
import java.util.Scanner;
public class RectangleAreaCalc
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
int length;
int width;
int area;

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.

this is what i got so far
public class Land
{
public static void main(String[] args){
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

I'm working on creating a dice game and getting the users input is giving me a really hard time. I have the main game working but this part I'm stuck on. The problem is that it's not giving me the chance to enter the second input when I ask for the game.
//Create Scanner object
Scanner keys = new Scanner(System.in);
//Get chips

How much money would you like to change? 50

I have been given a piece of work to do for College that requires me to format user input. For example: This is an example of text that will have straight left and right margins after formatting
will transform into:
This..is..an.example
of..text..that..will
have..straight..left
and...right..margins
after.....formatting
The user inputs the width, in the case above being 20. Each line has to therefore be 20 characters long. All spaces are to be replaced with full stops.
