methods returning zero's ???

Will someone look at this and maybe give a pointer on why only zero's are being returned.

public class employee {


String name;
int id;
int salary;
int age;
String position;
void display(){

System.out.println("Federal Tax" +getFedTax);
System.out.println("Social Security Tax" +getSsTax);
System.out.println("Health Fee" +getHealthFee);
System.out.println("Insurance" +getInsurance);
System.out.println("Net Pay" +getNetPay);
}
int getFedTax;

int fedtax = salary;
double fedtax1 = (fedtax-800)*.17;

int getSsTax;

int sstaxrate = 5;
double sstax = salary*.05;

int getHealthFee;

int healthrate = 5;
double healthfee = salary*.05;

int getInsurance;
int insurancerate;
{

if (age<40)
insurancerate = 3;
else if(age<=50)
insurancerate = 4;
else if(age<=60)
insurancerate = 5;
else if(age>60)
insurancerate = 6;
getInsurance = ((insurancerate*10^-3)*salary);


}
double getNetPay;

double netpay = salary-fedtax1-sstax-healthfee-getInsurance;
}

HERE IS MY MAIN CLASS


public class employeeMain {

public static void main(String[] args) {
{
employee employee1 = new employee();
employee1.name = "dave johnson";
employee1.id = 1234;
employee1.salary = 50000;
employee1.age = 45;
employee1.position = "supervisor";
employee1.display();
}
}
}

you used 'getFedTax', 'getSsTax', 'getHealthFee', 'getInsurance', and 'getNetPay' for display() but
you actually never used those and even didn't initialize values for them.

and just wondering, aren't those getSmth methods?

I thought the data i put in the employeeMain would go into those methods. I need to look back at my notes but, maybe I put a { after the method name to initialize?

those are not even methods yet....

getSsTax is still integer, not method

if getSsTax is a method then.... it should be like

Quote:

---

public int getSsTax(){
// code....
}

Alright I think that'll get me on the right path - thanks
