HOMEWORK 1:



Due Date September 20, 2007[20 points]

Write a Java program that converts the following measurements:

▪ The program reads a Fahrenheit degree in double from the input dialog box then converts it to Celsius and displays the result in a message dialog box.

▪ In Java, 5 / 9 is 0, so you need to write 5.0 / 9 to obtain the correct result.

The formula is: celsius = (5 / 9) * (fahrenheit - 32)

▪ The program should also convert Feet into Meters. The program prompts the user to enter a number in feet, converts it to meters, and displays the result. One foot is 0.305 meters.

▪ The program should also convert Pounds into Kilograms. One pound is 0.454 kilograms.

Sample Output:

The Temperature 32.0 Fahrenheit is 0.0 in Celsius

100.0 Feet is 30.5 Meters

165.0 Pounds is 74.91 Kilograms

Thanks for using my program

5. The declaration and statement sections must be preceded by comments to show the grader where the sections of the program start. (e.g. // Local Declarations).
