I am trying to make a ticket program. Here is my code:
public class CODE {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("How many people? ");
int people = input.nextInt();
int cost =(int) (2.50*people);
int x=0;
System.out.println("---------------------- \n");
System.out.printf("People:",people,"\n");
System.out.printf("Total cost:$",cost,"\n");
System.out.println("---------------------- \n");
}
}
It asks me how many people, then it prints something very different than what I want it to print. If I were to type 4 people this is what will come out.
How many people?
4
----------------------
People:Total cost:$----------------------
I want it to print (The 4 is the input I put in)
How many people?
4
----------------------
People:4
Total cost:$10
----------------------
You see an extra newline because of:
System.out.println("---------------------- \n");
println()
will produce a newline. The \n
produce a second newline, hence pushing down the line 2 times.
There is no need to use print printf
and println
. Just do:
System.out.println("----------------------);
System.out.println("People:" + people);
System.out.println("Total cost:$" + cost);
System.out.println("----------------------);
