Expert Solution & Answer
Chapter 2.4, Problem 2.16CP
Explanation of Solution
Variables:
A memory space, which contains a data value, is called as variable.
- The variable must be declared before it is used in the program, because Java
programming language statically typed. - The variable name should begin with a character, underscore (_) or dollar sign ($) and they should not start with a number.
- N number of variables can be defined in a single declaration statement.
- Variable names are case sensitive; a variable name with uppercase letter is different from the variable name with lower case letters...

The following variables have been initialized for you:
int a;
float f;
double d;
You have to cast the variable into different data types as follows:
Cast a as float to a variable x.
Cast f as an integer to a variable y.
Cast d as float to a variable z.
Hint: You have to initialize the variables x,y and z of proper data types
This is also a continuation from the previous two questions. The first two questions was for 1 and 2 USE TO ANSWER THIS QUESTION 3
Question 1
A tutor charges for services based on the number of hours worked in a month. The next four questions are for one program that calculates the cost for a tutor based on the number of hours worked.
Write a statement to ask the user to enter the number of hours worked and store it in a variable named hours as an float.
Answer:
float hours = sc.nextFloat();
Question 2
This is a continuation from the previous question. Now that the hours have been entered, write a loop that will run as long as the user enters bad hours data (0 or negative hours). If the user entered bad hours data, it asks them again with the message Not a valid amount of hours. Enter the hours again:
Answer:
while(true)
{
float hours = sc.nextFloat();
if(hours <= 0)
System.out.println("Not a valid amount of hours. Enter the hours again: ");
else
break;
}
Assuming the following code:
int x = myfunction1(); /* arbitrary value */
int y = myfunction2(); /* arbitrary value */
int z = myfunction3(); /* arbitrary value */
//convert to double
double dx = (double) x;
double dy = (double) y;
double dz = (double) z;
unsigned ux = x;
unsigned uy = y;
The following statement always evaluates to 1 (True or False):
(dx + dy) + dz == dx + (dy + dz)
True
False
