        public BankController(BankModel m, BankSaving s, BankSaving c) {
                this.model = m;
                this.view = s;
                this.view = c;
        }

    } 

im stuck here, how i suppose to build a controller?

It will depends on how you define controller... To me, a controller is a layer between model and view. Model deals purely with database calls (read & write). View deals with data that does not call for database but display what the data is (its data structure may be completely different from the database). The controller would use the model, create/build a data structure for the view, and pass that data to the view. The view can also pass parameters/arguments to the controller. Not sure what your definition is...

PS: Look at your view class to see what it needs for its display. Build/create that and store it back to the view class, so it can be displayed.

i want to store the input to the model, but confuse how to make the controller to do that

here is my model

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Iterator;

public class BankModel {
        private String ic;
        private String name;
        private String address;
        private String dob;
        private String open;
        private String min;
        private String acc;
        private String balance;
        private ArrayList BankSaving = new ArrayList();
         private ArrayList BankCurrent = new ArrayList();

        public String geticTF() {
                return ic;
        }

        public String getnameTF() {
                return name;
        }

         public String getaddressTF() {
                return address;
        }

         public String getdobTF() {
                return dob;
        }

        public String getopenTF() {
                return open;
        }

        public String getminTF() {
                return min;
        }

        public String getaccountTF() {
                return acc;
        }

        public String getbalanceTF() {
                return balance;
        }

        public void setic(String newic) {
                ic = newic;
        }

        public void setname(String newname) {
                name = newname;
        }

        public void setaddress(String newaddress) {
                address = newaddress;
        }

        public void setdob(String newdob) {
                dob = newdob;
        }

         public void setopen(String newopen) {
                open = newopen;
        }

         public void setmin(String newmin) {
                min = newmin;
        }

        public void setaccount(String newaccount) {
                acc = newaccount;
        }

        public void setbalance(String newbalance) {
                balance = newbalance;
        }


        private boolean isEmptyString(String input) {
                return ((input == null) || input.equals(""));
        }


}

after input..i want to display it, thats all
