Program Plan Intro

Calculate spherical distance between two points

Program plan:

  • Create a class “Distance”,
    • Declare and initialize the static variables
    • Define the method “main()”,
      • Declare and initialize the necessary variables.
      • Round the values of latitudes up to four decimals.
      • Assign the value returned from the method “sphericalDist()”.
      • Convert the value from kilometers to miles.
      • Round the values of “distance” and “distance_miles”.
      • Output the values of latitudes and longitudes.
      • Print the values of spherical distance in kilometers and miles.
    • Define the method “sphericalDist()”,
      • Calculate and return the spherical distance.
