Sample output :
Enter first number : 2
Enter second number : 3
Answer is : 8
// This is the process how we get the 8 = 2 * 2 * 2
I'm having a problem with this because I have no idea when using the loop. Everytime I try it always "Error" .
I'm so thankful if you will help me guys.
Post your compilable code and the complete stack trace.

So in the console,Quote:
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Addition {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner a = new Scanner (System.in) ;
System.out.print("Enter a number: ");
int number1 = a.nextInt();
System.out.print("Enter a number: ");
int number2 = a.nextInt();
int sum = (number1 + number2) ;
System.out.println("The sum of " + number1 + " and " +
number2 + " is " + sum);
}
}
I can type this
Console:
Enter a number: 2
Enter a number: 3
The sum of 2 and 3 is 5
Back to my problem , I;m having a hard time about the exponent thingy, someone says it need loop for re-multiplying the 2nd enter the number to make it as a exponent and the base will multiply depends how many on exponent. :-(
Here is link to the JAVA for statement tutorial. Give it a try and let us know if you have any questions. Also in the future you might want to learn how to use the code tags.
thanks for the reply,Quote:

Any pro there please?
Loads of pros. Where is your code? What doesn't work? Where ist the stack trace?Quote:

Note that you have multiplied by 2 three times ...

I tried it already I already loop for the second number to multiply itself from the first number but the answer is too far.Quote:

...and without seeing the code (including your output and any debugging you have done) we can't say why it is wrong.
