Help with this Java test GUI?

[Shmian]

I am making a test for a geocache where if the user gets all the answers correct it outputs coordinates. I am trying to figure out how to make a little window where the question is displayed and there is a place to write your answer, nothing fancy. Here is the test:

import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.util.Scanner;

public class test extends JFrame{
public static void main(String[] args){
Scanner ian = new Scanner(System.in);

String aone;
String atwo;
String athree;
String afour;
String afive;
String asix;
String aseven;
int bacon;
int cheese;
int lettuce;
int blargh;
int mayo;
int george;
int idk;
int answer;
System.out.println("The Computer Test");
System.out.println("Type the answer in the space provided.");
System.out.println("Question 1- What does RAM stand for?");
aone = ian.nextLine();
if (aone.equalsIgnoreCase("random access memory"))
bacon = 1;
else
bacon = 0;
System.out.println("Question 2- What type of keyboard layout is used in Albania?");
atwo = ian.nextLine();
if(atwo.equalsIgnoreCase("Qwertz"))
cheese = 1;
else
cheese = 0;
System.out.println("Question 3- What was the first company to make a mouse?");
athree = ian.nextLine();
if(athree.equalsIgnoreCase("apple"))
lettuce = 1;
else
lettuce = 0;
System.out.println("Question 4- How do you write \"I want the cache coordinates!\"in binary?");
afour = ian.nextLine();
if(afour.equalsIgnoreCase("010010010…
blargh = 1;
else 
blargh = 0;
System.out.println("Question 5- What is the name of what is known to be the first search engine?");
afive = ian.nextLine();
if(afive.equalsIgnoreCase("Archie"))
mayo = 1;
else
mayo = 0;	
System.out.println("Question 6- Which company invented Java?");
asix = ian.nextLine();
if(asix.equalsIgnoreCase("Sun Microsystems"))
george = 1;
else
george = 0;	
System.out.println("Question 8-(Hardest question--- What type of file does the extension \".EWL\" usually refer to?");
aseven = ian.nextLine();
if(aseven.equalsIgnoreCase("MS Encarta Document"))
idk = 1;
else
idk = 0;	

answer = bacon + cheese + lettuce + blargh + mayo + george + idk;

if(answer < 7){
System.out.println("I'm sorry, you did not get all the questions correct.");
}
if(answer == 7){
System.out.println("Here are the coordinates.");
}

}
}

This works fine, but I need to make GUI so I can make it usable. Help?

Help with what? Your post is like if you walked up to a NASA engineer and said "I want to build a space shuttle, can you help?"

Have you made a GUI before? If not google for a tutorial, follow it a build a basic GUI. Then see if you can adapt what you have learnt to making your own GUI. When you have tried doing that and have a specific question come back post your code and ask that specific question.

[Shmian]

I have tried before, but every tutorial I find I either can't understand the terminology, or have trouble applying the tutorial to my specific example. I know how to make a basic frame, but I don't understand how to make it functional for this quiz. Can somebody please help me get started, or tell me where to start? Can I get a link to a useful tutorial that will help me? Thanks.

I think your looking for a JOptionPane

Do this. before you define your class (public class whatever {

type this
import javax.swing.*;


Than, instead of getting input through scanner (which you should use an inputstreamreader for anyway in my opinion ONLY OPINION) type this REPLACE YOUR ian.nextLine() with

String input1 = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("What is your name?");

String input2 = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("What is your age?");

replace those questions about name and age with whatever you want to ask

Thanks. This is what I need, I'll try it right now. I'll post again if I have any questions, but thanks again.:D

If you are looking to make a more full GUI and not just changing what you use for the input a card layout would probably work well. Google java card layout and you should get some good tutorials and examples.

I am finished with the questions part of the test, but I am confused about how to display the coordinates or the message saying that they got questions wrong.

if(answer < 7){
			System.out.println("I'm sorry, you did not get all the questions correct.");
		}
		if(answer == 7){
			System.out.println("Here are the coords.");
			
		}
			      
			   }
			
	}

That's the part I need to edit. I can't do showInputDialog because then there will be a text bar underneath the text.

Did it not occur to you to look at the Java API to see what other methods the JOptionPane class has?
