Hey guys I can figure it out

**costello20** · October 6th, 2014, 12:13 AM

Hey guys so my teacher switched it up on me so now he want the input and output Dialog boxes. I got the Input but I cant figure out the output so if anyone could look it over and reformat it for me so it actually works that would be amazing (Im using Netbeans if that helps) and this is the error message it gives me "Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Uncompilable source code - Erroneous tree type: <any>
at Temperature.main(Temperature.java:28)

import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
 
public class Temperature {
 
    public static void main(String[] args) {
 
        String Temp = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter outside Temperature in Farhrenheit. Temp should be between -58F and 41F");
        double Temperature = Double.parseDouble(Temp);
        if(Temperature > 41){
            System.out.println("Error: Invalid Temperature");
        }else if(Temperature < -58){
            System.out.println("Error: Invalid Temperature");
        }
 
        String Wind = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("What is the MPH of the wind ex: q.2.3.4.5.6 ect.");
        double WindSpeed = Double.parseDouble(Wind);
 
        if(WindSpeed < 2){
            System.out.println("WindSpeed is to Low");
        }
 
        double Chill = 35.74 + (0.6215 * Temperature) + (35.75 * (Math.pow(WindSpeed, 0.16))) + (0.4275 * (Temperature * (Math.pow(WindSpeed, 0.16))));
 
       Chill = (int) (Chill * 100 / 100.0);
 
 
       JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,output);
 
 
    }//end of main method
 
}

You have never defined output. What are you trying to display?

**TheBeginning** · October 6th, 2014, 04:25 AM

At line 28: 'output' is not defined. It's supposed to be a String. Fill in:

JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,""+ Chill +"");

Also: Is this code being taught to you by your teacher? to be honest there's a lot wrong with it.

You start primitive types with a Capital, which is usually reserved for classes.
Also you're filling your main method with so much code, you're gonna have lots of trouble reading it, especially when you're code is gonna expand.
Try making seperate methods, like:

int calculateWindChill(short windSpeed, short temperature)
{
/* Return something
}

and then calling it out in your main method:

calculateWindChill(windSpeed, temperature);

Im trying to get a dialog box to pop up and display the final calculation of everything

--- Update ---

For you top code you gave me and showed me what to change is that the correction and that what i should put in?

Your code should work if output was defined and had a value.

**costello20** · October 6th, 2014, 10:13 AM

so since the error is showing for line 28

would this be a fix for it and correct it all

JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,""+ Chill +"");

**Norm** · October 6th, 2014, 10:29 AM

would this be a fix for it

Type it into the program, compile it and execute it to see.

If there are error messages, copy the full text and paste it here.

You can't access a variable that does not exist. You have to declare the variable output or change it to "" + Chill + "", as TheBeginning said above:

At line 28: 'output' is not defined. It's supposed to be a String. Fill in:

JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,""+ Chill +"");

If you are using an IDE (Integrated Development Environment) , you should get a red underline under output.
If you are not using an ide, I suggest you to download any free one.
Using an IDE will make debugging, testing, compiling, exporting, creating complex applications and write long files easier!
My favourite IDE is Eclipse. It's free and you can download it from Eclipse's official website!
Eclipse has great debugging tools, file managing system and is very customizable with built-in-, user created- and customizable themes, syntax highlighting and more.

EDIT: Also, you have named your Temperature-variable with the same name as your class, and that might cause problems when you call it (It doesn't seem to do that for you, because the program executes until it gets to the last line of code (which means that it has passed the lines with the calls for the Temperature-variable)).
