// Apply discount if the user is eligible (Task #4)
        if (discount) {
            System.out.println("You are eligible for a discount!");
            cost *= 0.9; // Apply a 10% discount
        }

        // Format money output with two decimal places (Task #5)
        System.out.printf("The cost of your order is: $%.2f\n", cost);

        tax = cost * TAX_RATE;
        System.out.printf("The tax is: $%.2f\n", tax);
        System.out.printf("The total due is: $%.2f\n", (tax + cost));

        System.out.println("Your order will be ready for pickup in 30 minutes.");
    }
}

Stack Overflow

The method printf(String, Object[]) in the type PrintStream is not ...

Why do I get the following compilation error with a simple call to printf? My code:

import java.util.Scanner;

public class TestCodeBankAccInputs
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{...

#

Can you try following the first answer on this page

#

This should be the same issue you're having

#

Also on another note I recommend using IntelliJ IDE instead of eclipse (if youre able to)

plush sandal Sep 17, 2023, 6:14 PM

#

No Im not, my prof says not to using anything but the one she uses

#

Ill try the fix youve sent ty

earnest pendant Sep 17, 2023, 6:15 PM

#

Damn

#

Well if you decide to continue with Java on your own past this course, u can use IntelliJ for personal projects or something

plush sandal Sep 17, 2023, 6:17 PM

#

Thanks for the suggestion 🙂 will look into it when Im not upset about having to deal with eclipse

earnest pendant Sep 17, 2023, 7:11 PM

#

Ya I didn't enjoy eclipse either but I was lucky enough to have a professor that let us use any IDE we wanted
