[Java] integer arithmetic


Question

Yeah well, Ive been taking an Intro to programming class, and ive been reading up on stuff, because the teacher doesn't know much himself :no: . And he gave us an assignment, none of us really knew what to do.

I know this is a beginner question, but I am one.

---

Exercise 2 --- Cents to Dollars

Write a program that reads in a number of cents. The program will write out the number of dollars and cents, like this:

D:\users\default>java Dollars

Input the cents:

324

That is 3 dollars and 24 cents.

(For this program you will use integer arithmetic and will need to avoid floating point arithmetic. Review the integer remainder operator % if you are unsure how to proceed.)

---

I have gotten this far, but am not sure what variables to put in

import java.io.*;
class Echo
{
  public static void main (String[] args) throws IOException
  {
	InputStreamReader inStream = 
		new InputStreamReader( System.in );
	BufferedReader stdin = 
		new BufferedReader( inStream );

	String inData;

	System.out.println("Numberents:");
	inData = stdin.readLine();

	System.out.println("You:" + inData );
  }
}

int dollar = Integer.parseInt(inData)/100;

int cent = Integer.parseInt(inData) % 100;

System.out.println("That"+dollar+" dollars and "+cent+" cents.");

Thanks, I still get an error saying this:

C:\Documents and Settings\Wootbiker\My Documents\JAvaFiles\ex1.java:6: cannot find symbol

symbol : variable inData

location: class ex1

int dollar = Integer.parseInt(inData)/100;

^

C:\Documents and Settings\Wootbiker\My Documents\JAvaFiles\ex1.java:7: cannot find symbol

symbol : variable inData

location: class ex1

int cent = Integer.parseInt(inData) % 100;

^

2 errors

Process completed.

    • I do not think that Windows 11 will pick up pace as October 2025 draws near. Even though I was a Windows Vista fan back in the day, this really reminds me of the (lack of) transition between Windows XP to Windows Vista. In the end, Microsoft had to backtrack and extend Windows XP support until Windows 7 was adopted.
    • How many minutes until they rename this? Outside of the search engine itself, it seems anything with the Bing name attached quickly gets renamed.
    • Save 15% on the Insta360 Link 2 4K Webcam, now available at the lowest price by Taras Buria Insta360 is known for its high-quality 360-cameras, but the company also offers high-end webcams for those who want to elevate their video calls or streaming. Right now, the Insta360 Link 2 4K webcam is available at a new all-time low price, saving you 15% off the standard MSRP. The Insta360 Link 2 is not your standard 4K webcam. This camera is mounted on a two-axis gimbal that physically pans and tilts to follow you as you move around the room. You can also set boundaries to prevent the camera from capturing certain areas and control it with gestures for a hands-free experience. The camera itself has a large 1/2" 4K sensor that captures more light and details with HDR and low-light mode support. A larger sensor also means a more natural bokeh effect. Built-in microphones support voice focus and voice suppression, and the camera can balance your voice with background music. Other features include additional modes, such as whiteboard mode, DeskView mode, portrait mode, and privacy mode. The latter tilts the camera down after 10 seconds of inactivity (you can also push it down manually). The Insta360 Link 2 is also remotely operated with a dedicated phone app, plus its desktop software lets you adjust features like background, filters, and more.
