package addressbook;

public class addressBook {

//Method execution
public static void main(String[] args) {
//set scanner input
Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);

//declare variables
String firstName= new String();
String lastName= new String();
String streetAddress= new String();
String cityName= new String();
String stateName= new String();
String zipCode= new String();
String donationNumber = new String();
String donationAmount= new String();

//set constructor

System.out.println("Please Enter Your First Name:\n");
firstName = in.nextLine();
System.out.println("Enter Your Last Name:\n");
lastName=in.nextLine();
System.out.print("Enter Street Address:\n");
streetAddress=in.nextLine();
System.out.print("Enter City:\n");
cityName=in.nextLine();
System.out.print("Enter State:\n");
stateName=in.nextLine();
System.out.print("Enter Zip Code:\n");
zipCode=in.nextLine();
System.out.print("Enter Number of Donations:\n");
donationNumber=in.nextLine();
System.out.print("Enter Amount of Donation:\n");
donationAmount=in.nextLine();


//Method to display address information

System.out.println(firstName + "");
System.out.println(lastName + "");
System.out.println(streetAddress +"");
System.out.println(cityName + "");
System.out.println(stateName + "");
System.out.println(donationNumber + "");
System.out.printf(donationAmount + "$%d%n");





}

}

System.out.printf("$%s",donationAmount);

since u declare donationAmount as String, use %s instead of %d

I kept getting errors when I tried making the donationAmount as a double.
Thanks this worked.
