Question
Using jGrasp and the Software Development Kit, write a program in response to the following prompt: Write a program that prompts the user to enter the mass of a person in kilograms and outputs the equivalent weight in pounds. Output both the mass and the weight rounded to two decimal places. (Note that for standard Earth gravity, 1 kilogram = 2.2 pounds.) Format your output with two decimal places.
Your answer should use dialog boxes for the input/output statements.
This question has been asked before, but the answers are not what I need. For one it must be in a dialog box. I have the entire code written...but not in the dialog box.
Explanation / Answer
import java.util.Scanner; // Scanner is in java.util
/**
* The MassConversionTool class implements and application
* that converts pounds to kilograms.
* @author Kevin Mirus
*
*/
public class MassConversionTool
{
/**
* Gets user input for a mass in pounds, then
* converts that to kilograms.
* @param args
*/
public static void main(String args[])
{
System.out.println("This program converts pounds to kilograms.");
double number_of_pounds;
Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Enter a mass in pounds: ");
number_of_pounds = keyboard.nextDouble();
double number_of_kilograms;
number_of_kilograms = number_of_pounds / 2.204;
System.out.println(number_of_pounds + " pounds = " +
number_of_kilograms + " kilograms");
}//end method main(String[])
}//end class MassConversionTool
