    Please edit your post and wrap your code with code tags:
    [code=java]
    <YOUR CODE HERE>
    [/code]
    to get highlighting and preserve formatting.

    Can you explain the problem you are having?
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.

    Did you look at the code you just posted? Was it formatted?
    The statements should NOT all start in the first column. Nested statements need to be indented.

    the answer is 99% wrong although the answer is correct.
    Please explain how that works. 99% wrong and correct
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
