Question #280606

3. Write a program with which you can convert a human height given in feet and inches



to centimeters. The program should ask the user to type in his or her height in two



parts: first the height in feet and then the inches part for the height. (A person can



say that his or her height is, for example, 5 feet and 9 inches. That would be 30.48



* 5 + 2.54 * 9 centimeters.



There can be thus two separate input statements in the program. After the program



has received the feet and the inches, it should calculate the corresponding value in



centimeters and print it to the screen.

import java.util.Scanner;

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.println("Type in height in two parts.");
        System.out.print("Feet: ");
        double feet = in.nextDouble();
        System.out.print("Inches: ");
        double inches = in.nextDouble();
        System.out.println("The height in centimeters: " + (30.48 * feet + 2.54 * inches));
    }
