Question

I'm a bit stuck. I'm trying to create a polynomial evaluator using arrays. So far, this is what i've done so far with my project. It's a simple program to evaluate polynomials, but now i have to use array's to make it more user adjustable.

import java.util.*;

public class PolyThree1

{

public static void main (String[] args)

{

Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in); //Scanner for user input

double a,b,c,d,e,f,x,y ; //Variables

String answer = "yes";

String answer2 = "yes";

while (answer2.equals("yes")){

System.out.println ("Enter Coefficient 5: "); // Ask's user for input

a = in.nextDouble();

System.out.println ("Enter Coefficient 4: ");

b = in.nextDouble();

System.out.println ("Enter Coefficient 3: ");

c = in.nextDouble();

System.out.println ("Enter Coefficient 2: ");

d = in.nextDouble();

System.out.println ("Enter Coefficient 1: ");

e = in.nextDouble();

System.out.println ("Enter Coefficient 0: "); // Ask's user for input

f = in.nextDouble();

answer = "yes"; //

while (answer.equals("yes")){

System.out.println ("Please enter x: ");

x = in.nextDouble();

y = c*x*x*x + d*x*x + e*x + f ;

System.out.println ("The answer is: " + y);

System.out.println ("Evaluate another x?: ");

answer = in.next();

}

System.out.println ("Another Polynomial?");

answer2 = in.next();

System.out.println ("Thanks, End of Program.");

}

}

}

I need help inserting arrays and making the java program looks more like this:

> java GenPoly
