So i decided to use a IDE and started making this program. Its for school and it you made it in the "Consol" but i started fooling around with it and made it a little better. If ur wondering why the seond program goes to the console, gets the Grade, then goes back to Messages, its because Java cant use the variable String in switch statements, and i read some tutorials on connverting the string to a hash (Just got confused). So i just used this way lol. If the Comments dont seem correct, dont Flame  i am new to this language. Heres my Code: import javax.swing.JOptionPane; // Import the Class for the JOptionPane
import java.lang.String; // Import the Class for the String variable

public class SecondAssignment {
public static void main(String[] Args) {
int theChoice; // Declares all the Variables Needed
int userAge;
char theGrade;
//Prompt the user to Pick the Assignment they wanna see and store it in userChoice
String userChoice = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null, "Assignment #2" + "\nPlease Pick the Assignment you would like to see: "
+ "\n(1) - The Age Program" + "\n(2) - The Switch Program", "Assigment #2", JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);
//Convert the String to a Integer and store it in theChoice so a Switch statment can be used
theChoice = Integer.parseInt(userChoice);
switch (theChoice) {
case 1: // First Case
//Asks the user How old they are and stores it in firstChoice
String firstChoice = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null, "Please Enter How Old you Are:", "Assignment#2", JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);
userAge = Integer.parseInt(firstChoice);
// IF/ELSEIF statment to check that message to print out to the user
if (userAge <= 1)
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Infant", "Assignment#2", JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);
else if (userAge == 2)
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Toddlert", "Assignment#2", JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);

System.exit(0);
break;
case 2: // Second Case
// Ask the user for there Grade and store it inside theGrade char Variable
System.out.print("Please Enter your Grade: ");
theGrade = in.getChar();
//Does the Switch Statement to see witch Message to print from the user

System.exit(0); // End the Program with nothing being stored into memory (Realese all Variables)
}
}
} Tell me what u guys think, and what i can do to improve :] Good artists copy, great artists steal.

PHP - No major company wants to support it or never heard of it.
Perl - Never was intended to be a web language and it far to slow and complicated compared to what is out there.
ASP - slightly outdated
ASP.net - Jobs abound, get certed and SQL Certed and make some bank
JSP - Jobs abound, Get good with JDBC connections, dynamic content and make bank.
C# - See ASP.net
There are more but they fall under PHP's situation.
Python - Delphi - on and on and on | | | | Joined: Nov 2002 Posts: 1,146 Likes: 1 UGN News Staff | UGN News Staff Joined: Nov 2002 Posts: 1,146 Likes: 1 | I think C++ is pretty good. Some good jobs out there if your good with C++. Good artists copy, great artists steal.

The Class: class Circle {
private double r;
public Circle() {
r = 1.0;
}
public Circle(double radius) {
r = radius;
}
public double getr() {
return r;
}
public void setr(double theNewRadius) {
r = theNewRadius;
}
public double theArea() {
return r *= 3.14;
}
} And the Program that uses the class: public class theProgram {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// Using the Defualt Constructer
Circle FirstCircle = new Circle();
System.out.println("(1)The Radius is: " + FirstCircle.getr());
System.out.println("(1)The Area is: " + FirstCircle.theArea());
// Using the Second Constructor (Assignment)
Circle SecondCircle = new Circle(4.1);
System.out.println("(2)Radius is: " + SecondCircle.getr());
System.out.println("(2)The Area is: " + SecondCircle.theArea());
// Using the setr to assign the raduis to the circle
Circle ThirdCircle = new Circle();
ThirdCircle.setr(8.0);
System.out.println("(3)Radius is: " + ThirdCircle.getr());
System.out.println("(3)The Area is:" + ThirdCircle.theArea());
}
} Simple, but hey, its a learning process. Good artists copy, great artists steal.

The big enterprise buisness dont bother using PHP/MySQL :[ Good artists copy, great artists steal.

"cannot resolve symbol variable in".I see that u used in.getChar() so I think u need to import java.io.*; and declared in as BufferedReader... Btw despite what I'm suggesting here, does u program work?  ""Don't go looking for heroes to believe in... believe in yourselves." - Roadhandler
