 double dx = Math.pow( (xK - x0), 2 );
 double dy = Math.pow( (yK - y0), 2 );
 
 double dxy = Math.sqrt( dx + dy );
 
 lengthOfRope += dxy;
 
 x0 = xK;
 y0 = yK;
 }
 
 double d1 = Math.pow( (xK - xStore), 2 );
 double d2 = Math.pow( (yK - yStore), 2 );
 lengthOfRope += Math.sqrt( d1 + d2 );
 
 
 DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat( "#.00" );
 
 System.out.println( df.format( lengthOfRope ) );
 }
 }
Re: Test 5 failure - Please help!. The problem was my usage of DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat( "#.00" );
 It should have been something like this: DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat( "0.00" );
 
 Note the '#' to '0' change.
Re: Test 5 failure - Please help!. You are correct, but what is the difference between the two thing? |
