[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 did not spot that! "This article was generated with some help from AI and reviewed by an editor", to me, suggests it was indeed entirely generated by AI and just looked over by Sayan. Bond. Mate 😔
    • Good. They shouldn't be allowed to block this stuff anyway. They're getting paid to host your app to begin with, they get a cut of the sale of the app to start. After the app leaves their servers and is on your device, the dev should be free to offer you alternative options for payments or links to their site directly from within their own app. Since these systems don't use any of Apples services at all, there should also be zero reason they should demand a cut for doing nothing like they're some digital mafia.
    • I suspect this was primarily developed with the Switch 2 in mind, which would explain the poor visuals. It seems like they're hoping the nostalgic GoldenEye 64 crowd is still loyal to Nintendo consoles. Unfortunately, this might be yet another title limited by development for underpowered Nintendo hardware.
    • Amazon's Lab126 ventures into "Physical AI" with new robotics team by Paul Hill Amazon has announced that it’s forming a new agentic AI team within its secretive hard research and development division, Lab126, to begin work on physical AI. Specifically, the company is looking to develop an agentic AI framework for use in robotics, which could start to impact blue-collar jobs, especially at its warehouses. Agentic AI is one of the latest developments in AI, superseding the previous generative AI that took off with the launch of ChatGPT. Agentic AI models are special because they can complete multi-step actions for the user to complete complex tasks. Thanks to all the visual and audio capabilities added to generative AI in previous years, these agentic models can perceive their environment, reason, plan, and act to achieve goals with minimal human intervention. If Amazon can successfully bring agentic AI to robots, they will finally be able to interact with the real world in a way they can’t today, as software running on a computer. Many people are concerned about AI’s impact on white-collar jobs right now, but when Amazon develops physical AI, it will also affect blue-collar manual work. The work is going to be carried out by Amazon’s R&D company, Lab126. It was set up over 20 years ago and has created many iconic Amazon devices, including the Kindle, Fire tablets, Amazon Fire TV, Amazon Echo devices, and more. Who it affects, and how The biggest impact of physical AI developed by Lab126 will be on Amazon’s warehouses and logistics. The company said it wants to create robots that can perform tasks based on natural language instructions. As usual for a big tech company, Amazon claims that these robots will be assistants, but it’s difficult to see how they won’t reduce the need for people. Solely based on Amazon’s plans to automate work in its factories, customers will see an indirect impact from the move through faster deliveries and potentially lower costs. The decision by Amazon to focus on agentic AI in robots is pretty interesting because so far, we’ve mainly been hearing about agentic AI limited to computer applications, such as intelligent web browsers like Opera Neon. Why it's happening Amazon has a reputation for being an efficient company, particularly when it comes to the employment of warehouse workers who are known to have strict restroom breaks. Creating robots that can help speed up warehouse activities will further boost efficiency at the company and could potentially reduce its costs and improve safety. The beginning of work on physical AI is just the next evolution of AI that we could start to hear about in the coming months and years. As agentic AI gets better, companies will be looking to see what they can advance next and physical AI may be where they choose to go next; it certainly seems like this is what Amazon has settled on in this move. If Amazon’s physical AI doesn’t lead to mass layoffs of warehouse employees, it could drastically boost worker safety. Employees could potentially be less fatigued from moving around so much, which could lead to better concentration and fewer accidents. Right now, Amazon claims that these robots will only be assistants and not replacements. While Amazon will certainly be a leader in physical AI, given its massive wealth to throw at the problem, once the technology is available, it will likely be available for sale to other businesses to use, too. Caveats and what to watch for While it’s a notable development, it still sounds like Amazon is in the early stages of developing these physical AI systems, given that it has only just set up the team. We also don’t know what specific products Amazon is planning to build or the timelines for deployment. Ever since generative AI came onto the scene, there has been discussion of AI safety. With AI moving into the physical world, it will also bring up discussion about the safety concerns. Current measures are mainly concerned with AI software running on computers, not when it interacts physically with the world. Finally, and probably the biggest concern, what will these “assistants” do to people’s jobs? Companies will likely find themselves bringing in fewer new hires initially, but it could also displace people from their jobs. Source: CNBC
    • Nintendo Switch 2 launches, where to buy and a list of games that it may not support by Sayan Sen Nintendo announced the Switch 2 back in early April this year and then followed that up with more details related to performance and hardware features later. The company touted 10x the performance of the Switch. However, on the flip side, the battery suffers, and you also need new microSD Express cards for storage.

Nintendo has also published a full list of games that may not work on the Switch 2: Borderlands 3 Chrono Cross: The Radical Dreamers Edition Crash Bandicoot N-Sane Trilogy Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus R KarmaZoo Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics Mortal Kombat 1 Overwatch 2 Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords Star Wars Republic Commando Super Mega Baseball 4 Tombi! Special Edition Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2 Touhou Genso Wanderer Reloaded Ty the Tasmanian Tiger HD Warriors: Abyss However, keep in mind that Nintendo last updated the support list last month on May 27th and the company may still be testing these. So keep an eye on the official list of games on this webpage here on Nintendo's site. Have you managed to pick up the Nintendo Switch 2? Let us know in the comments.
