Hi,

I am pretty new to java, and I know you probably think this is a stupid
question. Though I am trying to get input from on 3 different lines and add
them, then take away tax from the final figure.
Here is what I have written so far, can you help me please?

================================================



import java.io.*;
public class SalesTax1 {

  final static double Tax_Rate           = 0.3;    // salestax percentage

  public static void main (String[] args)
      throws IOException
  {
    System.out.println ("SALES TAX CALCULATOR");    // create a text input
stream

    BufferedReader stdin   =   new BufferedReader
                               (new InputStreamReader (System.in)); // this
allow people to input something, then the computer can work of these figures

    String initString;
    int initialPrice;          // stores user input
    int initialPrice1;          // stores user input
    int initialPrice2;          // stores user input
    double finalPrice; // stores salary minus tax
    double tax;                 // stores payable tax


    System.out.print ("Enter the Price: \n");
    System.out.print ("Enter the Price: \n");
    System.out.print ("Enter the Price: ");

    initString      =   stdin.readLine();
    initialPrice   =   Integer.parseInt (initString);    // calculate
payable tax
    initialPrice1   =   Integer.parseInt (initString);
    initialPrice2   =   Integer.parseInt (initString);


    if (initialPrice == (initialPrice + initialPrice1 + initialPrice2) )
    {
      tax =  initialPrice / Tax_Rate ;
    }

    else
    {
      tax = initialPrice * Tax_Rate;
    }    // calculate netto income

    finalPrice = initialPrice - tax;     // Output

    System.out.println();
    System.out.println("Original Price               : " + initialPrice );
    System.out.println("Original Price               : " + initialPrice1 );
    System.out.println("Original Price               : " + initialPrice2 );
    System.out.println("Sales Tax (" + Tax_Rate + " %): " + tax );
    System.out.println("--------------------------------");
    System.out.println("New Price           : " + finalPrice );
  }
}


=================================================
