Problem 1.11

                     The U.S. Census Bureau projects population based on the

following assumptions:

■ One birth every 7 seconds

■ One death every 13 seconds

■ One new immigrant every 45 seconds

Write a program to display the population for each of the next five years. Assume the

current population is 312,032,486 and one year has 365 days.

Description

 In Java, if two integers perform division, the result is an integer. The fractional part is truncated. For   example, 5 / 4 is 1 (not 1.25) and 10 / 4 is 2 (not 2.5). To get an accurate result with

the fractional part, one of the values involved in the division must be a number with a

decimal point. For example, 5.0 / 4 is 1.25 and 10 / 4.0 is 2.5

Solution:

                  public class Message {

    public static void main(String[] args) {

         

        System.out.println("Total born = "+(5*365*24*60*60)/7);

        System.out.println("Total died = "+(5*365*24*60*60)/13);

        System.out.println("Total immigrant  = "+(5*365*24*60*60)/45);

         

    }

   

}
