    Default ParseDouble.

    Hello I have a couple of questions. I'm a newbie at Java programming and I have a project due tomorrow and because I cannot figure out how to do these things it's hindering my ability to complete my project.
    First question is : How would i ParseDouble a Scanner class(not sure if i said that correctly)? And also how would I divide a user input rate by 12 and also 100? An example would be
    double rate = (User input) / 12 /100;
    System.out.print ("Enter the rate: ");
    rate = parsedouble(how would i finish this part of the code)?

    Any help would be appreciated with the code to do so!

    To parse a double from the user you can use the Scanner class' nextDouble() method. You can use it to directly initialize a variable as you declare it. This scanner class can be used to read all types input from the user and store them in memory.

    More info: Scanner class - Java

    // Assuming a scanner object has been created, 'scanner'
    System.out.print("Input is: ");
    double input = scanner.nextDouble();
