Write method headers for methods with the following descriptions using java code
Printing the calendar for a given month and year
Computing the weekday for a given day, month, and year (as a string such as "Monday")
Generating a random integer between 1 and n
The following Java code is poorly structured. Rewrite it so that it has a better structure and avoids redundancy. To help eliminate redundancy, convert the code into a method named spending that accepts two parameters: a Scanner for the console, and a String for a single person's name, and prints the appropriate information about that person's bills. Your method could be called twice (once for John and once for Jane) to replicate the original code's behavior.
public void spending(Scanner console,String name)
{
System.out.print("How much will " + name + " be spending?");
double amount = console.nextDouble();
System.out.println();
int numBills = (int) (amount / 20.0);
if (numBills * 20.0 < amount)
{
numBills++;
}
System.out.println(name + " needs " + numBills + " bills");
}
The code above is all I was given to work with, which is why I'm a bit confused and need help. Thank you.
Write a method with the following header to display an integer in reverse order: public static void reverse(int number) For example, reverse(3456) displays 6543. Write a test program that prompts the user to enter an integer then displays its reversal
