Hello again everyone. Your help has been appreciated beyond belief. I have finally gotten this program straightened out, however, I am having one last problem. All of the calculations are correct, and it runs smoothly, except when I try to enter a tax rate at the same time I begin running the program.
When I enter "C:\Temp>
java Project02 .04," after the program compiles, the .04 is supposed to be the tax rate that the program uses. When I don't enter the ".04" the program works perfectly, however, when I enter that extra data that the program is supposed to recognize, it tells me the following:
"Exception in
thread "main" java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input
string: ".04" at java.lang.NumberFormatException.forInputString(NumberFormatException.java:48) at java.lang.Integer.parseInt(Integer.java.:468) at java.lang.Integer.parseInt(Integer.java:518) at Project02.main(Project02.java:38)
I placed "**********" in the code again to denote where I think the problem may lie, is that not the statement that is supposed to accept the ".04" or whatever value I enter?
I am very confused as to what I should do, and I have read over the exceptions. Can anyone give me any advice? Thanks a lot...again.
