Assign variables to numbers left of decimal and right

1 New Member
Edit: Ah, never mind. I feel silly. I just needed to convert amount into an integer.
I am having a little trouble figuring out how to assign a variable (dollars) to the numbers left of the decimal and how to assign a variable (cents) to the right of the decimal. The only parts of the code I can modify are those 2 assignment statements because it is a homework question. The user inputs something like 123.45

Thanks for any help.

  1. import java.util.Scanner;
  2. public class ApplicationSkel
  3. {
  4.  
  5.   public static void main(String[] args)
  6.   {
  7.     double amount;
  8.      int dollars, cents;
  9.      Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
  10.  
  11.      System.out.print("Enter your purchase $");
  12.      amount = scan.nextDouble();
  13.  
  14.      dollars = ________;
  15.      cents  = ________;
  16.  
  17.      System.out.print("You entered " + dollars + " dollars and " + cents + "."); 
  18.  
  19.   }
  20. }

I want to loop thru an array of controls,(39 of them...defaults = 0). If value is null or non-numeric I want to assign the value of "0". rowString = "L411" //conrol name if (isNaN(eval ("document.forms."+rowString+".value")) == true ) { //this alert works if the value is a letter,i.e,"a" alert("You have entered an non-numeric value.\nEnter a number in the appropriate box.");

Hello! I wonder if there's a good way to make a function that calculates 2 big numbers (whole numbers) expressed as strings and return a result string with the value of a number? For example: string MyAdd(string s1, string s2); s = MyAdd("10", "20"); //=> returns "30"

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention.
