Hi, i'm really really new to Java and programming in general. I'm working my way through the Java for Dummies book and came across a problem with one of the examples. Here is the code:
import java.util.Scanner;
class VersatileSnitSoft {
public static void main(String args[]) {
Scanner myScanner = new Scanner(System.in);
double amount;
System.out.print("What's the price of a CD-ROM? ");
amount = myScanner.nextDouble();
amount = amount + 25.00;
System.out.print("We will bill $");
System.out.print(amount);
System.out.println(" to your credit card.");
}
}Now, the program compiles but it crashes if i enter in a value with a decimal point.
Here's the output after i enter a value with a decimal point.
What's the price of a CD-ROM? 5.75
Exception in thread "main" java.util.InputMismatchException
at java.util.Scanner.throwFor(Scanner.java:840)
at java.util.Scanner.next(Scanner.java:1461)
at java.util.Scanner.nextDouble(Scanner.java:2387)
at VersatileSnitSoft.main(VersatileSnitSoft.java:10)
Process completed.
Any help would be greatly appriciated. Thanks.
