    Thanks for letting me know. I just wasn't sure and didn't want to take the chance.

    Re: missing return statement need help!!

    the typing error of Void instead of void is the problem. Your code will compile when you change it (I have BlueJ and it compiles). I don't think I could have directly told you as I have a mark...
  4. Re: Trimming, parsing, verifying grades entered are valid

    Surely you would use an integer to read in marks?

    Re: missing return statement need help!!

    check over your code and make sure you have the basic outline for java typed out correctly. Remember that Java is case sensitive.
  6. Re: Trimming, parsing, verifying grades entered are valid

    Start with writing down the logic/algorithm for the validation.
    For example, you want the user to repeatedly enter a value until it is valid (between 0 and 100), so you would use a loop for this.

    Re: missing return statement need help!!

    You don't seem to require a return statement for your code. You only have 1 method declared. I take it your using BlueJ. Just take a look at how you have declared your main method.

    Re: Monthly mortgage payment calculator

    Even try solving the problem, using a pen and paper. Make sure that its correct. For example :
    housePrice = 30000.00
    downPayment = 5000.00

    then write it out like ( ((30000.00 - 50000.00) * ......

    [SOLVED] Re: Array[] Size Question

    Thanks. I was thinking something like that.
    What I have done now, is just created a getFileSize method that takes the file name as a parameter and returns an int (the size of the file).

    It might help to indent your code properly. You can read it better. But anyway this is what I have been able to do :

  22. Re: Why is this code giving me an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundException?

    Why are you using an array called args[0]?

    Wrap your code in the [CODE] blocks and format it so its easier to read and and understand.
  23. Re: Highschool student in need of help with array problem! Please Help!

    1 way to do this would be :

    Re: a==b, b not initialized

    The problem has been solved by Zyrion. The problem is with the way you are trying to evaluate the if statements a==b or b==a. As Zyrion said use a==1 or b==2 to solve the problem.

    [SOLVED] Re: If and else if statements???

    Also, there is no need for the if-else-if statement. Just use if-else. for example :

    System.out.println("A " + name + " has a tail");
    else
    System.out.println("A " + name + "...
