Personal Greeting

Back to the Program-A-Day homepage

Problem Write a Java program PersonalGreeting, that asks a series of questions and returns a response. For all input and output please use JOptionPane to help review the first chapter's material. Your program should do the following: prompt the user for their name (String) prompt the user for their age (int) output a greeting message that displays both name and age gathered from the input Example: User inputs "Elmo" for their name and "10" for age would result in something like "Welcome to COMP 1010 Elmo, you are 10 years old today."		Personal Greeting This is more pleasent looking in person
Solution Start by importing the swing java package. import javax.swing.*; Define your variables, we will need a String for your name and an int for age. String name; int age; Next start by capturing the user input using JOptionPane. We will need to use Integer.parseInt to cast the String result to an integer for your age. name = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Please enter your name") ; age = Integer.parseInt(JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Please enter your age")); Now output your message using JOptionPage.showMessageDialog JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Welcome to COMP1010 " + name + ", you are " + age + " years old today.");
Code Solution Code import javax.swing.*; public class PersonalGreeting { public static void main(String[] args) { String name; int age; name = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Please enter your name") ; age = Integer.parseInt(JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Please enter your age")); JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Welcome to COMP1010 " + name + ", you are " + age + " years old today."); } }
