Is there a reason why my program won't compile?

[java=hard]

I have been scrounging about, trying to get to compile this properly, but I get a stupid error message at the end.

I also do not know how to implement an accumulator into the methods, could someone at least teach me how to implement one? Into Main, or just a separate method?

Thanks for any help.

What is the error message.

[java=hard]

Exception in thread "main" java.util.IllegalFormatConversionException: d !

and so on...

Its a huge error message right at the end.

[BestJewSinceJC]

You're using printf incorrectly.

System.out.printf("%d. %-20s\n", POTTER_NUM, POTTER_NAME, POTTER_PRICE);
System.out.printf("%s", "What is the tax rate for this transaction (in percent)? ");

Only the first one would cause an error, but the second one should just be the second String - you have no need to say %s instead of just quoting the String, do you?

In the first one, it might be complaining because you have three arguments but only two format specifiers (i.e. the %d and %s are format specifiers).

You have similar errors all over.

[java=hard]

But for the second one, I do not get an error. Only toward the end, with the main method

[java=hard]

I also cannot figure out how to implement an accumulator in this program. My friend told me a switch statement needs to be created, but I have no idea how to do that in the main method?

[BestJewSinceJC]

System.out.printf("%d. %-20s\n", average);

Like I said, similar errors all over. You either have the wrong type of argument or the wrong number of arguments. You're doing this all over the place. You told it to expect an integer followed by a String, but you only passed in "average" (which I'm assuming is an integer).

System.out.printf("%d. %-20s\n", average, "");

You have to pass it a String if you put %s.

[BestJewSinceJC]

I also cannot figure out how to implement an accumulator in this program. My friend told me a switch statement needs to be created, but I have no idea how to do that in the main method?

Fix your printf errors first. Whether or not it produces an error message doesn't matter. There are logical errors and compiler errors. Your program has both right now, it is important to get rid of them. And I don't know what an accumulator is .

[java=hard]

I think it might be too late. The assignment is due in about 30 minutes.

[jwenting]

Doesn't matter. Without a complete rewrite to use proper OO techniques and actually have it be Java rather than Basic using Java syntax you should get a major fail on that assignment anyway.

I think it might be too late. The assignment is due in about 30 minutes.

wow ... talking about efficiënt time management :|
