Java syntax array double question

Hi!

ok, rewritten quite a bit of my code, but I have this:

salesData[currentSalesman].setloanAmount(newData[2]);
salesData[currentSalesman].setinterestRate(newData[3]);
salesData[currentSalesman].settermYears(newData[4]);

which is for a String, but loanAmount and interestRate are doubles and termYears is an int. How do I write this then?

Thank you in advance!

What type is 'salesData'?

setX will have to be called with a numeric primitive - your code is passing an array at the moment

You can't have array with elements of different type
You rather have object
salesData

and it should have fiields

double Amount;
doubl interstRate;
int termYears

and mthods

setAamount(doubl amount)

setInterestRate(double rate)

setTerm(int year)

and corresponding gett methods
That woulsd be morer logical

It's a String

public static String[] getStringArray() {
String[] currentStringArray = new String[7];
currentStringArray[0] = salesData[currentSalesman].getName();
currentStringArray[1] = salesData[currentSalesman].getmortPhone();
currentStringArray[2] = salesData[currentSalesman].getloanAmount();
currentStringArray[3] = salesData[currentSalesman].getinterestRate();
currentStringArray[3] = salesData[currentSalesman].gettermYears();

return currentStringArray;

ok I thought I could do something with Double.toString, but I didn't know how to word it (for lack of a better term.

Oops

currentStringArray[3] = Double.toString(salesData[currentSalesman].getinterestRate());

Something like thate - you define class
and then you can operated withn
the array of instances of this class

class  SalesData {

double amount;
doubl interstRate;
int termYears


public void setAmount(double d){
amount = d;
}

public void setInterestRate(doubel d){
interetRate = d;
}

public void setTerm(int i){
termYears = i;
}

}


SalesData [] sales;

sales = new SalesData[10];

sales[i].setAmount(100000.0);
sales[i].setInterestRate(0.053);
sale[i].setTermYear(20);
