How do i enter numbers into my java code?!?

[Andrew D]

Ok so i only started programming last week so im a little stuck. I know how to enter intergers...

int numx;

What i want to know is how do i enter other numbers such as ones with decimals and the such?!?

[Chesty LaRue]

double mynum = 0.9832432;
or
float mynum = 0.6823432;



Both of the above allow decimal numbers, double is the more accepted standard but has a slightly higher memory overhead (Takes larger numbers)

Java is a great language to learn programming, feel free to contact me for more information, info@noirenex.com

As stated coding the line as
Double num
will work, to save you time, save it as a global Variable eg.
double num=0;
for(i=0;i<=4;i=i+1)
{
System.out.println("what is your favorite number")
num=kb.nextDouble ();
}
the forloop is not what im trying to tell you, its that if you put you int after you public static void main, and before what ever you will have the program do, itll save you a lot of time
