How lucky it was when AMD send the phenom for them. This must be a great experience when you can get it first. This is a preview of the AMD Phenom system with two ATI HD 2900XT onboard with it. BTW it was not lonely.

Java savings account problem

silentsunami — Sun, 28 Jan 2007 17:17:06 +0800

I just try to make a simple saving account program with java, hope anyone can help me to make this program more robust and tell me how to improve it.The fuction of this program is to calculate the total interest, total deposit, total withdrwal, final balance, with the user need to deposit and withdraw once a month. thank you.

This is the Saving Account class

public class SavingAccount
{
private double balance;
private double interestRate;
private double totalInterest;
private double totalDeposit;
private double totalWithdraw;
private double startingBalance;

public SavingAccount(double a, double b)
{
balance = a;
interestRate = b;
totalDeposit = 0.00;
totalWithdraw = 0.00;
totalInterest = 0.00;
}

public void setInterestRate(double b)
{
interestRate = b;
}

public void setBalance(double a)
{
balance = a;
}

public double getInterestRate()
{
return interestRate;

}

public double getBalance()
{
return balance;
}

public void deposit(double amount1)
{
totalDeposit += amount1;
balance += amount1;
}

public void withdraw( double amount2 )
{
totalWithdraw += amount2;
balance -= amount2;
}

public void computeInterest()
{
totalInterest += balance * ((interestRate/100)/12);
balance += balance * ((interestRate/100)/12);

}

public boolean equals(SavingAccount account)
{
if(interestRate == account.interestRate && balance == account.balance)
return true;
else
return false;
}

public String toString()
{
return(" Total amount deposited: " + totalDeposit + "\n" +
" Total amount withdrawn: " + totalWithdraw + "\n" +
" Final balance: " + balance + "\n" +
" Total Interest: " + totalInterest);
}

}

And this is the main function of the program.

import java.util.Scanner;

public class SavingAccountTest
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
int i;
int option = 0;

Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);

System.out.println("Please enter the month: ");
int month = keyboard.nextInt();
System.out.println("Please enter the balance: ");
double balance = keyboard.nextDouble();
System.out.println("Please enter the annual interest: ");
double interestRate = keyboard.nextDouble();

SavingAccount account = new SavingAccount(balance, interestRate);

for(i = 1; i <= month; i++)
{
System.out.println("*******************************");
System.out.println("*1. Deposit *");
System.out.println("*2. Withdrawal *");
System.out.println("*******************************");
option = keyboard.nextInt();
if(option == 1)
{
System.out.println("Please enter the deposited amount: ");
account.deposit(keyboard.nextDouble());
account.computeInterest();

}
else if(option == 2)
{
System.out.println("Please enter the withdrawal amount: ");
account.withdraw(keyboard.nextDouble());
account.computeInterest();
}
else
{
System.out.println("Wrong Input!");
System.exit(0);
}
}
System.out.println(account);
}
}

Thank you for helps.
