Stupid Prob

[TBeck]

In your Student Class

the calculation

Gpa = cHours/pEarned;

is double = int/int

now the int/int will return an int value (in your case cHours is less than pEarned so the result is 0.something, but the something is being trimmed off since it is an int)

to prevent this you must first cast the variables to double and then divide, this can be done as follows

Gpa = (double)(cHours)/(double)(pEarned);

[lunchboxtheman]

Gpa = (double)(cHours)/(double)(pEarned);

Really you only need to cast one of the values. Java will automatically promote the other int to a double. Not a big deal, just being picky.

Also, it is good programming practice to check for possible division by zero exceptions before doing any division. You might just want to add a little if...else before you divide to see if pEarned is 0.

This doesn't necessarily pertain to your problem, but it might cause some down the line.

yea i guess you only have to do one of them, or multiplying one of them by 1.0 or something like that works too.. I guess we all have our own little way of doing things like this
