    Post The cash register program

    hey there, I am new to Java programming.
    While solving Cash Register challenge I had an issue with my java code if anyone can help me out or can give suggestion that would help me alot.


    Here is the code:

    import java.io.File;
    import java.io.IOException;
    import java.text.DecimalFormat;
    import java.util.Scanner;

    public class CashRegister{

    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException{

    Scanner fileScanner = (args.length > 0) ? new Scanner(new File(args[0])) : new Scanner(System.in);

    while(fileScanner.hasNextLine()){
    String line = fileScanner.nextLine();
    if(!line.equalsIgnoreCase("")){
    String elements[] = line.split(";");
    float price = Float.parseFloat(elements[0]);
    float cash = Float.parseFloat(elements[1]);

    double change = cash - price;

    if(change < 0){
    System.out.println("ERROR");
    }else if(change == 0){
    System.out.println("ZERO");
    }else{
    System.out.println(findChange(change));
    }
    }
    }
    fileScanner.close();
    }

    private static String findChange(double change){

    String textChange = "";

    DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat("########.##");
    int intChange = (int)(Double.valueOf(df.format(change)) * 100);

    while(intChange >= 0.01){
    if(intChange >= 10000){
    textChange += "ONE HUNDRED,";
    intChange -= 10000;
    } else if(intChange >= 5000){
    textChange += "FIFTY,";
    intChange -= 5000;
    } else if(intChange >= 2000){
    textChange += "TWENTY,";
    intChange -= 2000;
    } else if(intChange >= 1000){
    textChange += "TEN,";
    intChange -= 1000;
    } else if(intChange >= 500){
    textChange += "FIVE,";
    intChange -= 500;
    } else if(intChange >= 200){
    textChange += "TWO,";
    intChange -= 200;
    } else if(intChange >= 100){
    textChange += "ONE,";
    intChange -= 100;
    } else if(intChange >= 50){
    textChange += "HALF DOLLAR,";
    intChange -= 50;
    } else if(intChange >= 25){
    textChange += "QUARTER,";
    intChange -= 25;
    } else if(intChange >= 10){
    textChange += "DIME,";
    intChange -= 10;
    } else if(intChange >= 5){
    textChange += "NICKEL,";
    intChange -= 5;
    } else if(intChange >= 1){
    textChange += "PENNY,";
    intChange -= 1;
    }
    }
    return textChange.substring(0, textChange.length() - 1);
    }
    }
