Hi, I have tried every way I could think to correct this problem. This is the last of 13 errors I had to find debugging this assignment.

Code:

interest = annualInterest 12;

after compiling it, the error message said:

Code:

possible loss of precision

found: double

required: int

the declaring variables are

int price, downPayment, tradeIn, months, loanAmt, interest;
double annualInterest, payment;

under conversions there is this:

Code:

annualInterest =Double.parseDouble(inputAnnualInterest);

under calculations the line of code is

Code:

interest = annualInterest 12;

I tried putting "/" in front of 12, got an error. Tried putting parantheses around
(annualInterest 12) got an error. How to get int when there is a double. I determined from declared variable annualInterest was the double. So here is what I tried next:

Code:

interest = (double = (annualInterest / 12));

got an error back

Code:

unexpected type
required: variable
found : class
interest = (double = (annualInterest / 12));
^(under the d in double)
1 error

My understanding is everything in the ( ) has to equate to an int and not double...since interest is an int. Must be close because the error message no longer says found: double required: int. It just says found:class required variable.

Maybe someone can clarify my understanding.

Thanks
