Answer to Question #230497 in Java | JSP | JSF for arz

Question

1. The number of lines that can be printed on a paper depends on the paper size, the point size of each character in a line, whether lines are doublespaced or single-spaced, the top and bottom margin, and the left and right margins of the paper. Assume that all characters are of the same point size, and all lines are either single-spaced or double-spaced. Note that 1 inch ¼ 72 points. Moreover, assume that the lines are printed along the width of the paper. For example, if the length of the paper is 11 inches and the width is 8.5 inches, then the maximum length of a line is 8.5 inches. 

Write a program that calculates the number of characters in a line and the number of lines that can be printed on a paper based on the following input from the user: 

a. The length and width, in inches, of the paper. 

b. The top, bottom, left, and right margins. 

c. The point size of a line. 

d. If the lines are double-spaced, then double the point size of each character.

Answer 1

import java.util.Scanner;


public class PageCalulator {


	public static void main(String[] args) {
		
		Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
		double length, width, toptMargin, bottomtMargin, leftMargin, rightMargin, pointSize;


		System.out.print("Enter the length of the paper: ");
		length = input.nextDouble();
		System.out.print("Enter the width of the paper: ");
		width = input.nextDouble();
		System.out.print("Enter the left margin of the paper: ");
		leftMargin = input.nextDouble();
		System.out.print("Enter the right margin of the paper: ");
		rightMargin = input.nextDouble();
		System.out.print("Enter the top margin of the paper: ");
		toptMargin = input.nextDouble();
		System.out.print("Enter the bottom margin of the paper: ");
		bottomtMargin = input.nextDouble();
		System.out.print("Enter the point size of a character: ");
		pointSize = input.nextDouble();
		input.nextLine();
		System.out.print("Enter line spacing, s or S (single spaced), d or D (double spaced): ");
		String line = input.nextLine();
		if (line.toLowerCase() == "d") {
			pointSize = (pointSize * 2);
		}
		length = length - (toptMargin + bottomtMargin);
		width = width - (rightMargin + leftMargin);
		int numberCharacters = (int) ((width * (72)) / (pointSize));
		int numberLines = (int) ((length * (72)) / (pointSize))-1;
		
		System.out.println("\nThe number of lines that can be printed: " + numberLines);
		System.out.println("The number of characters that can be printed in a line: " + numberCharacters);


		input.close();
