Problem with Java Assignment.

[Southpaw]

I'm having a problem with this JDialog Code.

import javax.swing.JOptionPane;

public class FibonacciJDialog
{

    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
	 	String num;
		int n;

		num =
          JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter n: "); // getting user number input.
          n = Integer.parseInt(num);


        Fibonacci box = new Fibonacci(); // Creating new Fibonacci object.


        JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"That Fibonacci Number is" ); // Display results in dialog box.
        return sum;


        System.exit(0); // Terminate

    }
}

The Fibonacci code is as follows:

public class Fibonacci
	{
	int Fib (int n)
		{
			int in1=1,in2=1;
			int sum=0;//initial value
			int index=1;
			while (index<n)
			{
			// sum=the sum of 2 values;
			// in1 gets in2
			// in2 gets sum
			// increment index
			}
			return sum;
		}
	}

Please when you ask for some problems then you need to describe the problem to us. Not just post unworking code, tell us which part that give you errors. Because we are not always in front of a Java IDE.

I just try to read your code. There are some errors in there.

1. The main method has a void return. So you cannot return any value from this method.
2. There is no variable named sum. It doesn't valid return statement anyway.
3. You can put statement after a return. It will never reached in execution.

sorry im still new to posting on here. I have made some changes to the code and now I get some different errors.

import javax.swing.JOptionPane;

public class FibonacciJDialog
{

    public static long main(String[] args)
    {
	 	String num;
		int n;
		int sum;

		num =
          JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter n: "); // getting user number input.
          n = Integer.parseInt(num);


        Fibonacci box = new Fibonacci(); // Creating new Fibonacci object.


        JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"That Fibonacci Number is" ); // Display results in dialog box.
        return sum;


        System.exit(0); // Terminate

    }
}

errors:
error: variable sum might not have been initialized
return sum;
^
error: unreachable statement
System.exit(0); // Terminate
^\
error: missing return statement
}
^
3 errors

Tool completed with exit code 1

Does this help?
