Hello SO Community I have recently changed my program from a Scanner input and display to a JOptionPane input and display, It is set up to display the investment over a course of user specified years
Currently if the number of years is more than 3 it will terminate the program, how would I go about solving this and/or creating a single pop up window to show the results? Thank you in advance everyone.
import java.util.*;
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class Investing {
public static void main (String[] args){
double amount;
double principal;
double rate;
Scanner input1 = new Scanner(System.in);
String principals = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Please Enter The Principal");
principal = Double.parseDouble(principals);
String rates = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Please Enter The Rate Of Interest");
rate = Double.parseDouble(rates);
String years = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Please Enter The Number Of Investment Years");
double g = Double.parseDouble(years);
String zs = JOptionPane.showInputDialog( "Please Enter Annual Contribution");
double z = Double.parseDouble(zs);
amount = principal;
for(int year = 1; year <= g; year++){
amount *= 1 + rate/100;
amount+= z;
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog( null, year + " " + amount, zs, year);
}
}
}
You are using JOptionPane wrongly
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog( null, year + " " + amount, zs, year);
You are passing year as message type, so it fails after year 3. you should do
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog( null, year + " " + amount, "title", JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE );
