help convert something simple to java from vb

**coreyk67** · 05-11-2012, 04:06 PM

I'm a total newb and need help doing a conversion from vb to java. its a hydrometer calibration formula.

Java Code:

Function sgRatio(Temp As Double) As Double
    sgRatio = 1.00130346 - 0.000134722124 * Temp + 0.00000204052596 * Temp ^ 2 - 2.32820948E-09 * Temp ^ 3
End Function

Function corSG(SG As Double, Temp As Double, CalT As Double) As Double
    corSG = SG * (sgRatio(Temp) / sgRatio(CalT))
End Function

Layman instructions.

C = ((1.313454 - (0.132674*F) + (0.00205779 * F^2) - (0.000002627634 * F^2)))

Where F = Temperature in degrees Fahrenheit.

C = Correction

So,

CG = C + (SG * 0.001)

Where,

CG = Specific Gravity corrected for temperature

C = Correction from above forumla

SG = Specific Gravity before temperature correction.

Thanks in advance... this is not homework, just me messing around :)

All the help you'll need to make a start can be found in The Java™ Tutorials

And it doesn't make any difference whether it's homework or not, this is a forum -- not a code mill. We're prepared to help you learn, not to do your work for you.
