ok so I'm kinda new to java and I'm trying to make a class which will be able to ask the user to input a 12 digit long upc code, check to make sure its a valid code, and then display if it is or not. I've got quite a few errors with the current program that I have and I can't seem to figure it out. This is the code that I have so far:
public class Upc {
private long upc;
public Upc(long upcs) {
upc = upcs;
}
public long getUpc() {
int m = (n2 + n4 + n6 + n8 + n10);
long n = (n1 + n3 + n5 + n7 + n9 + n11);
long r = (10 - (m + 3 * n) % 10);
long n12 = (int) (upc % 10);
upc /= 10;
long n11 = (int) (upc % 10);
upc /= 10;
long n10 = (int) (upc % 10);
upc /= 10;
long n9 = (int) (upc % 10);
upc /= 10;
long n8 = (int) (upc % 10);
upc /= 10;
long n7 = (int) (upc % 10);
upc /= 10;
long n6 = (int) (upc % 10);
upc /= 10;
long n5 = (int) (upc % 10);
upc /= 10;
long n4 = (int) (upc % 10);
upc /= 10;
long n3 = (int) (upc % 10);
upc /= 10;
long n2 = (int) (upc % 10);
upc /= 10;
long n1 = (int) (upc % 10);
if (r == n12) {
return (upc + " is a feasible UPC code");
} else {
return (upc + " is an invalid UPC code");
}
}
}
and my errors are as follows:

I feel like fixing one or two things will eliminate alot of this, can anyone help me?

"cannot be resolved to a type" means that the compiler has decided that, according to the syntax of the language, what it found at this place in the code has to be type, which means either a class, an interface, or a primitive tpye, but cannot find the definition of any type with that name.
Which of these can not be used for a variable name in Java? Explanation: Keywords are specially reserved words which can not be used for naming a user defined variable, example: class, int, for etc.
The syntax for an initializer is the type, followed by the variable name, followed by an equal sign, followed by an expression. That expression can be anything, provided it has the same type as the variable. In this case, the expression is 10, which is an int literal.
The error is because Scanner class does not have a constructor taking PrintStream as argument. You should provide InputStream.
this variable define after
long n12 = (int) (upc%10);
upc /= 10;
long n11 = (int) (upc%10);
upc /= 10;
long n10 = (int) (upc%10);
upc /= 10;
long n9 = (int) (upc%10);
upc /= 10;
long n8 = (int) (upc%10);
upc /= 10;
long n7 = (int) (upc%10);
upc /= 10;
long n6 = (int) (upc%10);
upc /= 10;
long n5 = (int) (upc%10);
upc /= 10;
long n4 = (int) (upc%10);
upc /= 10;
long n3 = (int) (upc%10);
upc /= 10;
long n2 = (int) (upc%10);
upc /= 10;
long n1 = (int) (upc%10);
int m = (n2 + n4 + n6 + n8 + n10);
long n = (n1 + n3 + n5 + n7 + n9 + n11);
long r = (10-(m+3*n)%10);
you'r using that variable which was not been defined and after using you define that variables
Edit : for if
As you define you method with the return value as long time and you return the String value, see the return value
return (upc + " is a feasible UPC code");
you need to change the return type either in method or as return time like if you want to return this then you method signature looks like this
public long getUpc(){
// and return will work
return (upc + " is a feasible UPC code");
}
but if you want to only numeric value then do not change it's method signature just return the upc like this
return upc;
This is because you haven't declared those variables before you use them on this these lines:
int m = (n2 + n4 + n6 + n8 + n10);
long n = (n1 + n3 + n5 + n7 + n9 + n11);
You declared them after...
Based on what I think you're trying to do, you need to move these three lines to after that large chunk of division/modulus code:
int m = (n2 + n4 + n6 + n8 + n10);
long n = (n1 + n3 + n5 + n7 + n9 + n11);
long r = (10-(m+3*n)%10);
This is because you are using variables before telling the compiler what are they. First you should Declare Them and then use them.
