Question about the task

Resolved

public class Solution {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        hackSalary(8000);
    }

    public static void hackSalary(int a) {
        a=a+1000;
        System.out.print("Your salary is: " +a+ " dollars per month"); //write your code here
    }
}

In the public static void hackSalary(int a) method, increase the salary by 1000 and display the following: "Your salary is: <a+1000> dollars per month."
where <a+1000> is the salary increased by 1000.

Example output for a = 7000:
Your salary is: 8000 dollars per month.

Requirements:

The program should display text on the screen.
The main method should not call System.out.println or System.out.print.
The hackSalary method should not return a result.
The main method should call the hackSalary method only once.
The hackSalary method should increase the input parameter by 1000 and output text to the screen according to the specified template.

Do this System.out.println("Your salary is:" +" " +(a+1000)+" " + "dollars per month.");

Use this one. System.out.println("Your salary is: "+(a+1000)+" dollars per month."); and dont forget to add fullstop at the end..

There must be dot (.) after month. i.e. "Your salary is: " +a+ " dollars per month."

package com.codegym.task.task02.task0205; /* Pay raise */ public class Solution { public static void main(String[] args) { hackSalary(7000); } public static void hackSalary(int a) { //write your code here // Your salary is: 9000 dollars per month. //String c="Your salary is:"; // String d="dollars per month."; a = a + 1000; // where <a+1000> is the salary increased by 1000. System.out.println("Your salary is:"+a+"dollars per month."); } } why not correct

Check carefully. There should be a space after : and before dollars in println method.

Always check that your output matches what is expected letter for letter. In most cases, errors are caused by missing semi-colons, periods(dots) as in this case, and missing open and close braces.

According to the template, your output text lacks the final period after the word "month" (month.)

useful

There is a full stop (.) after month in println. Put a full-stop in your print statement after month.
