Help with hypotenuse code that uses JOptionPane PLEASE help
I was out for a couple days in my class and i have no idea where to even begin on the following program.
-create a program called hypotenuse
-use JOptionPane input to ask the user for x, y, width and height of a rectangle.
calculate the length on the diagonal
Diagonal = square root of(width squared+height squared)
-report to the user in a JOptionPane message the width height and diagonal length

Being out of class is no excuse for lack of effort. I do not mean to sound rude but what have you tried? As anyone with some experience will tell you when it comes to programming practice is what makes you better.
Have you used JOPtionPane before?
How would you get the hypotenuse by hand?
Re: Help with hypotenuse code that uses JOptionPane PLEASE help
Here's what you would need from JOptionPane:
JOptionPane (Java Platform SE 7 )
Note, that the showInputDialog is static and called with the class name and also returns a String so you'll have to Integer.parseInt() or Double.parseDouble() it to get it into the number format you want. Also, as for the Component param, you can usually pass it null.
Second, the Math class has a method called sqrt() that takes the double as a param and returns a double I think. It is also a static method, meaning that it is called with the class name.
As for the output, this should work
JOptionPane (Java Platform SE 7 )
Note, that again the component param can be null.
