Hi,
A beginners type question.
I want to read 2 double(temperature) values entered via the console(it's a
fairly trivial console program) but I can't get it to work using the
following :-
double dry ;
double wet ;
try {
DataInputStream dis = new DataInputStream( System.in );
System.out.println("Enter Temp 1 > ");
dry = dis.readDouble();
System.out.println("Enter Temp 2 > ");
wet = dis.readDouble();
}
catch ( IOException e ) { }
What is the correct way to read float/double values entered via a console
window
