Use Loop to print out each monthly rent, Threshold

Question

Use a Loop to print out each monthly rental from the array that falls below the user entered threshold

This was a question I received from my lecturer, I require help because I simply have no idea where to even start. Here is my complete code for the Program, it is the last case.

import java.util.Scanner ;
public class jakeGrim {

  public static void  main(String[] args) {
                // Local variable

                int option;
                String squareFootage="";

                int noBed = 0;

                double totalSum =0;

                String propertyCode="";

                String propertyType="";

                String threshold="";


                Scanner input = new Scanner( System.in );
                Scanner user_input = new Scanner( System.in );
                double[] array = new double[12]; 

  do{
            // Display menu graphics
            System.out.println(" ");
            System.out.println("|  *****Rental Menu*******   |");
            System.out.println("|        1. Enter rental property Details     ");
            System.out.println("|        2. Enter monthly rent ( 12 Months )       ");
            System.out.println("|        3. Display Annual Rent");
            System.out.println("|        4. Display rental report       ");
            System.out.println("|        5. Display Monthly rents falling below a certain threshold       ");
            System.out.println(" ");
            System.out.println(" Please Select an option: ");
            option = input.nextInt();


  {

    switch (option) {


   case 1:


            System.out.println("Enter Rental Details: ");
            System.out.println("Property Code:            ");
            propertyCode = user_input.next();
            System.out.println("Property Type:            ");
            propertyType = user_input.next();
            System.out.println("Square Footage:           ");
            squareFootage = user_input.next();
            System.out.println("Number Of bedrooms        ");
            noBed = input.nextInt();
            break;


      case 2:

     {
         Scanner keyboardScanner = new Scanner(System.in); 

         for (int i = 0; i < 12; i++) {
          System.out.println("Enter Rental for month[" +( i +1)+ "]");
          array[i] = keyboardScanner.nextDouble();
}




        //So now, we need to do something with that array and sum up all the values in that array. 
        for (int i = 0; i < array.length; i++){
          System.out.println(array[i]);

         totalSum += array[i];
}
}




 break;


     case 3:
         System.out.println("The annual rent for propery code "+propertyCode+" is:  " +(totalSum));


break;

    case 4:

        System.out.println(" Property Code:      "+propertyCode);
        System.out.println(" Property Type:      "+propertyType);
        System.out.println(" Square Footage:     "+squareFootage);
        System.out.println(" Number of Bedrooms: "+noBed);
        System.out.println("");
        System.out.println("");
        for(int i = 0; i<12; i++)
            System.out.println("Rental for month " + (i+1) + " : " + array[i]);


    case 5:

         Scanner user_input = new Scanner( System.in );

        System.out.println("Enter the Rental Threshold: ");
        threshold = user_input.next();

        System.out.println("


    break;
    default:
        System.out.println("Invalid selection");
      break; 
     }
  }
}while (option!=0);
}
}

Answer 1

Well,your program has several flaws which should be improved for better performance.

1. There is no need of braces before switch.So,delete the braces{ before the switch statement!

2. Again,there is no need of braces { in case 2 and } before break statement of case-2. You better leave it as it is.

3. Add these lines of code in your case 5: after deleting previous data into that.

   case 5:
      //  Scanner user_input = new Scanner( System.in );
   System.out.println("Enter the Rental Threshold: ");
   threshold = user_input.next();
   for(int i=0;i<array.length;i++){
   if(Integer.valueOf(threshold)>array[i])
   System.out.println("Month "+(i+1)+" has the rent falling below the threshold range as the rent is "+array[i]);
   }
   System.out.println("");
   break;
   

4. Lastly,you simply need to edit do-while condition,set it as do{...}while(option>=1 && option<=5);

5. Also, as a matter of fact,try to indent your code properly to give it a better feel! It will make others go through your code and sincerely help you!

Correct working code :-

       import java.util.Scanner;
       public class jakeGrim {
