Thank you, but after fixing that lines 82, 92, 100.

    num = bTime;  
    do  
    {  
      System.out.println("Results: " +convert.prt(num));  
      num++;  
    } while(num<=eTime);  
     
    num = bTime;         
    while(num<=eTime)  
    {  
       System.out.println("Results: " +convert.prt(num));  
       num++;  
    }  
  
    num=bTime;          
    for(num<eTime;bTime<=eTime;num++;)/>/>/>  
    {  
      System.out.println("Results: " +convert.prt(num));  

    }  

Why do they throw errors about not being the right length? I'm currently at school waiting on my proffessor but after he showed me some examples I've got to where I am also stumping him with the same problem. Any ideas?

Reason for edit:: Fixed posted code ... again

[pbl]

    num=bTime;          
    for(num<eTime;bTime<=eTime;num++;)/>/>/>/>  
    {  

for(num<etime;
is not a valid loop initializer

[DtP1337]

So num=bTime would be?

[pbl]

always depends what you want to do
for sure that

for(num<eTime;bTime<=eTime;num++
should be
for(num = eTime; bTime <= eTime; num++) // without the last ;

but this is an ackward loop if you do not change bTime or eTime inside the loop then
bTime <= eTime
will be true for ever and the loop will be infinite

usually a for() loop has this format

for(num = eTime; <test on num here>; num++)

Happy coding

Thanks i'll try that when I get home.

I believe this will be my final post on this subject if anyone can answer how I am to get the correct output for centigrade and fahrenheit. I have almost got it I believe just missing the correct output.

import java.util.Scanner;

public class ConvertDemo{
	public static void main(String[] args)
	{	
	double bTime,
	eTime,
	num = 1.0;

	Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
	
	System.out.println("What is the beginning temperature in centigrade?");
	bTime = input.nextDouble();
	
	System.out.println("What is the ending temperature in centigrade?");
	eTime = input.nextDouble();
	
	ConvertClass convert = new ConvertClass();

	
	
	while(!(bTime <= eTime)) 
{
	System.out.println("Please enter valid Beginning Time and Ending Time.");
	System.out.println("Please be sure your begining time is less than ending time.");
	
	System.out.println("What is the beginning temperature in centigrade?");
	bTime = input.nextDouble();
	
	System.out.println("What is the ending temperature in centigrade?");
	eTime = input.nextDouble();
}
	
	num = bTime;
	
	System.out.println("_______________________________________");
	do 
{
	System.out.println("Results:");
	convert.prt();
	num++;
}
	
	while(num<=eTime);
	
	num = bTime;
	
	
	System.out.println("_______________________________________");
	
	while(num<=eTime)
{
	System.out.println("Results:");
	convert.prt();	
	num++;
}

	num = bTime;
	
	
	System.out.println("_______________________________________");
	
	for(num=bTime;num<=eTime;num++)
{
	System.out.println("Results:");
	convert.prt();
}
	
}
}

import java.text.DecimalFormat;

public class ConvertClass

{
	setTempC(0.0);

{
	tempC = c;
}

	public double getTempC()
{
	return tempC;

	public double getFahrenheit()

	double F;
	return F = (9*tempC)/5+32;

}

Nevermind I found it ... needed a convert.SetTempC(num); command to send TempC to the num variable so that it would be processed in both getTempC / getFahrenheit... Hooty Hoo!!!

import java.util.Scanner;

	System.out.println("What is the beginning temperature in centigrade?");
	bTime = input.nextDouble();
	
	System.out.println("What is the ending temperature in centigrade?");
	eTime = input.nextDouble();
	
	ConvertClass convert = new ConvertClass();

	
	
	while(!(bTime <= eTime)) 
{
	System.out.println("Please enter valid Beginning Time and Ending Time.");
	System.out.println("Please be sure your begining time is less than ending time.");
	
	System.out.println("What is the beginning temperature in centigrade?");
	bTime = input.nextDouble();
	
	System.out.println("What is the ending temperature in centigrade?");
	eTime = input.nextDouble();
}
	
	num = bTime;
	
	System.out.println("_______________________________________");
	do 
{
	System.out.println("Results:");
	convert.setTempC(num);
	convert.prt();
	num++;
}
	
	while(num<=eTime);
	
	num = bTime;
	
	
	System.out.println("_______________________________________");
	
	while(num<=eTime)
{
	System.out.println("Results:");
	convert.setTempC(num);
	convert.prt();	
	num++;
}

	num = bTime;
	
	
	System.out.println("_______________________________________");
	
	for(num=bTime;num<=eTime;num++)
{
	System.out.println("Results:");
	convert.setTempC(num);
	convert.prt();
}
	
}
}

Gheeezzz you made it complicated for nothing
with a lot of useless while and unsused methods
I guess this is what you want

import java.text.DecimalFormat;
import java.util.Scanner;

public class ConvertDemo{
	public static void main(String[] args)
	{	
		double bTime,
		eTime,
		num;

		Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);

		System.out.println("What is the beginning temperature in centigrade?");
		bTime = input.nextDouble();

		System.out.println("What is the ending temperature in centigrade?");
		eTime = input.nextDouble();


		while(!(bTime <= eTime)) 
		{
			System.out.println("Please enter valid Beginning Time and Ending Time.");
			System.out.println("Please be sure your begining time is less than ending time.");

			System.out.println("What is the beginning temperature in centigrade?");
			bTime = input.nextDouble();

			System.out.println("What is the ending temperature in centigrade?");
			eTime = input.nextDouble();
		}

		num = bTime;


		System.out.println("Results:");
		for(num=bTime; num <= eTime; num++)
		{
			ConvertClass cc = new ConvertClass(num);
			cc.prt();
		}

	}

}

class ConvertClass
{
	DecimalFormat dec = new DecimalFormat("#0.000");
	private double tempC;

	public ConvertClass(double tempC)
	{
		this.tempC = tempC;
	}
	private double getFahrenheit()
	{
		return (9*tempC)/5+32;
	}

	public void prt()
	{
		System.out.print("Temperature Centigrade: " +dec.format(tempC));
		System.out.println("    Fahrenheit: " +dec.format(getFahrenheit()));
	}
}

It was required in the project to understand each one used.

I think the unused methods are put to use now.
