hi peoples, i started object oriented programing about 2 weeks ago and i pretty much get the concept that everything is an object which is under class which uses methods in order to do "stuff".

im trying to make a virtual vending machine, that will produce 3 options and you will pick by saying a. b. or c. and the money thing will work by just typing in "100" or whatever price it is, i need help with the interface =( i know html for the thing but im not sure how i'd do it in java to make a "submit" button to check if the money value is equal to the price....this is what i have so far and its...a mess... =/ a little help would be greatly appreciated =)

public class Energydrinkmachine
  {
 
 
  private int price;
 
  private int balance;
 
  private int total
 
 
 
  public Energydrinkmachine(int drinkcost)
  {  
      price = 5;
      balance = 0;
      total = 0;
 
 
  }
  public int getPrice()
  {
        return price;
 
  }
 
 
  public int getBalance()
  {
      return balance;
 
  }
 
  public void insertMoney(int amount)
  {
      balance = balance + amount;
  }
 
  public void printDrink()
  {
 
    System.out.println("heres your soda")
    System.out.println();
 
 
  }
 
}

Your post violates the posting guidelines on these points :
1.)You did not use an appropriate thread title.
2.) You did not use code tags for your code.

I don't see any reference to a button in your code.
If you want to use a button then have a look at the JButton class. You'd also need to know how to use JFrames and ActionListeners.
If this is not required for this assignment then you can use JOptionPane's showInputDialog method to get a Dialog which comes all dressed with the event handling stuff already.
