Question

Write a static method called quadrant that takes as parameters a pair of real numbers representing an (x, y) point and that returns the quadrant number for that point. Recall that quadrants are numbered as integers from 1 to 4 with the upper-right quadrant numbered 1 and the subsequent quadrants numbered in a counter-clockwise fashion:

Notice that the quadrant is determined by whether the x and y coordinates are positive or negative numbers. If a point falls on the x-axis or the y-axis, then the method should return 0. Below are sample calls on the method.

import java.util.*;
public class main
{public static void main(String args[])
{double x,y;
Scanner in=new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.print("Enter x: ");
x=in.nextDouble();
System.out.print("Enter y: ");
y=in.nextDouble();
System.out.print("Point("+x+","+y+") is in quadrant "+quadrant(x,y));

}
public static int quadrant(double x, double y)
{if(x==0||y==0)
     return 0;
if(x>0)
    if(y>0)
       return 1;
    else
       return 4;
else
    if(y>0)
       return 2;
    else
       return 3;

}
}
