Programming Drill #1

Due: Wednesday, August 29
Goal:  Declare and use variables of different data types

Here is the definition of a variable licks that is a double and stores the number 0:

        double licks = 0;    

Write a Java program that defines variables of the appropriate data type and set them to the following values:

• The number 4 - store in a variable named radius
• The number 3.1415  - store in a variable named PI
• The text "How many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop?"  - store in a variable named message

Pretend that it takes 4.4 * (PI * radius * radius) licks to get to the center of a tootsie pop.  Have your program use this formula with your variables to output:

How many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop?  221.1616

Show your program to your instructor or email it to kenrick@uaa.alaska.edu by the end of the day for full credit.
