When you make taffy (a pliable candy), you must heat the candy mixture to 270 degrees fahrenheit.

write a program that will a cook make taffy. the cook should be able to enter the temperature reading from his/her thermometer into the program. the program should continue to let the cook enter temperatures until the temperature is at least 270 degrees.

when the mixture reaches or exceeds 270 degrees, the program should stop asking for the temperature and print your taffy is ready for the next step! .

here is a sample run of what it should look like:

starting taffy
enter the temperature: 40

the mixture isn't ready yet.
enter the temperature: 100

the mixture isn't ready yet.
enter the temperature: 200

the mixture isn't ready yet.
enter the temperature: 300
your taffy is ready for the next step!
make sure that your output matches this sample run!

how i do dis in java

The program is an illustration of loops.

Loops are used for repetitive operations;

The program in Java, where comments are used to explain each line is as follows:

import java.util.*;

public class Main{

public static void main(String[] args) {

 //This creates a Scanner object

 Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);

 //This declares temperature as integer

 int temp;

 //This prompts the user for input

 System.out.print("Starting Taffy Timer...\nEnter the temperature: ");

 //This gets the input from the user

 temp = input.nextInt();

 //The following iteration is repeated until the user enters at least 270

 while(temp<270){

     //This prompts the user for another input

     System.out.print("The mixture isn't ready yet.\nEnter the temperature: ");

     //This gets another input from the user

     temp = input.nextInt();

 }

 //This is printed, when the user enters at least 270

 System.out.print("Your taffy is ready for the next step!");

}

}

The above program is implemented using a while loop

Explanation:

Here's my solution:

import java.util.Scanner; // We start by importing the Scanner, which enables us to put in values

public class Main // our class. Name doesn't really matter here.

{ // Open the brackets of the class.

public static void main(String[] args) { // This is our main method. It will run when we run the class.

    System.out.println("Starting Taffy Timer..."); // When we start the timer, we will print out that we do so

 Scanner re = new Scanner(System.in); // Import the scanner into the main method

 int temp; // Define the integer called temperature that the user will put in

 do { /* This is a do while loop -- it will go through the loop, and then it will check the value.

      I decided to use this because we can define temperature without checking the value first.

     What this loop is doing is taking in the temperature, and then checking if it's right. If

     it's a high enough temperature, it will tell the user that it's ready, but if not, it won't. */

     temp = re.nextInt(); // Allow the user to enter in the temperature

     if(temp >= 270) { // if it's high enough, say that it's ready

         System.out.println("Your taffy is ready for the next step!");

     }

     else { // if not, don't

          System.out.println("The mixture isn't ready yet.");

     }

 }

 while(temp < 270); // This makes sure that if it's ready for the next step, we don't have to continue

}

}
