I am 'obviously' just learning programming and I can't seem to figure out what to do in order to get rid if this error. The error is on the second to the last line - the line before: [System.out.print(+windChill);]
Here (written just below), are the list of Java-generated 'possible hints' for the errors that I am getting:
**')' expected method pow in class java.lang.Math cannot be applied to given types required: double,double found: double method pow in class java.lang.Math cannot be applied to given types required: double,double found: double operator + cannot be applied to double,pow incompatible types required: doub...**
Any hints or clarification would be most appreciated. Please see code below. Thank you in advance.

import java.util.Scanner;
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// TODO code application logic here
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.print("Enter a temperature between -58 and 41 degrees Fahrenheit and press ENTER");
double temperature = input.nextDouble();
System.out.print("Enter a wind speed that is 2 miles per hour or faster and press ENTER");
double windSpeed = input.nextDouble();
double windChill = (((35.41 + temperature - Math.pow(windSpeed * 16) + Math.pow(temperature * 16)));
System.out.print(+windChill);
}
}
(((35.41 + temperature - Math.pow(windSpeed * 16) + Math.pow(temperature * 16)))
Math.pow
requires two arguments. You are providing just one.
Did you mean Math.pow(windSpeed,16)
?
Math.pow is declared as
public static double pow(double a,double b)
It returns the value of the first argument raised to the power of the second argument.
In addition you have an extra parenthesis at the left hand side.
The error indicates that you're missing a )
at the end of the line that starts
double windChill = (((35.41 + temperature...
You could also remove one of the (
at the beginning of the expression after the =
, since it looks like not all of those are really needed.
