How do you convert this String into a double?

Hi, in this code I want to convert String arg into a double. I'm trying to do this so that I can convert some string into a double in this calculator that I'm making. Here is the code:
public class par {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String str = "351";
double arg = new double(str); // should convert the string into a double
     System.out.println(arg);
     System.out.println(str);
I keep getting errors in line 4, if any of you could help me out here I'll be thankful, i'm kinda new to java and my search for java's equivalent of alof() (its a function in C libraries that converts char[] into a double)lead me to this.

Use the Following:
String num = "123.2";
double d = Double.parseDouble(num);

    Hi Christopher
    See Purchase requisition creation can happen without vendor and price details as well.
    so once you have finalised your vendor and price ,you can put the vendor and price details  in PR and then PR can go further for approval...there will be some manual work ,,but I do not think any more option available.
    hope its logical,.

  • How do I convert a string into a decimal

    I've been tryin to convert a string into decimal but I can't get it to work at all. I keep getting an exception.
    I've tried all of these:
    double myDouble = Double.valueOf(string).doubleValue();
    int myint = Interger.parseInt(string);
    float myfloat = Float.parseFloat(string);
    I can't get anything to work.
    That string i'm reading in is an array containing values with decimals. ex: -45.09348
    All the above work fine if there is no decimal, but fails when it comes to one.
    How do I go about doing this?
    Thanks!

    This works for me:String s = "-45.6789";
    double d = Double.parseDouble(s);
    System.out.println(d);Mark

  • How do I convert a string to a double, a number loses the precision

    I tried converting a string to a double but that limits the precision. I need to convert a string to a double.

    If you use the Scan From String function, the default is to convert to a dbl. If you're looking at a front panel indicator, don't confuse the format and precision of the indicator with the type representation. You can set the indicator to display as many digits as you want but that doesn't change the actal number stored in memory.

  • How can I convert a String into boolean?

    I am facing difficulty in converting String into boolean.
    For example, I have a few variable which i need user to input yes or no as the answer. But I uses string instead. Is there a way which i can ask them to input boolean directly?
    Please advise...
    credit = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter Yes or No for Credit Satisfactory : ");
    System.out.println("The answer for Credit Satisfactory : "+credit);
    e_invtry=JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter Yes or No for inventry level");
    System.out.println("The answer for Quantity Order : "+e_invtry);

    Thanks...but I don't get it....I tried to use your
    suggestion but i got the message that " cannot find
    symbol method
    showConfirmDialog(java.lang.String,int)" ???
    Please advise.
    The code I use was :
    int credit = JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog("Enter Yes
    or No for credit satisfactory",
    JOptionPane.YES_NO_OPTION);Well that was not the example I gave you.
    JOptionPane has no method showConfirmDialog that receives a String and an int (exactly what the error message is telling you).
    What was wrong with the version I showed you?

  • How do you convert Raw files into jpeg.

      I have never shot in Raw before and I have a huge project due tomorrow. I need help Asap. What is the easiest way to convert Raw files into jpeg, can Light Room convert the files. I have tried so many different ways and nothing seems to work.

    It depends on the sofware you have.  ACR (Adobe Camera Raw) hosted by Bridge or by Photoshop can convert ("open") raw files, as can Lightroom.
    However, not all camera models are supported by all versions of the software.  We need to know the make and exact model of the camera that generated the raw files to advice you further.
    We can also assist you with the conversion through ACR hosted by Photoshop.
    Olease note that there are dedicated forums for Lightroom, for Adobe Camera Raw and for Bridge.
    Here's the list of which cameras are supported by each version of ACR.  Note that later versions supporte all camera models supported in previous versions of ACR.
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/407/kb407111.html
    Note that the latest version of ACR to run in CS4 is ACR 5.3;
    CS3 runs ACR 4.6;
    CS2 runs ACR 3.7;
    CS runs 2.4.

  • How do you convert numeric values into english words?

    I am interested in creating a field in adobe acrobat that references a total dollar amount field. I want the java script to convert the numeric number into a written word, such as $59.59 as Fifty Nine and 59/100. I have no experience writing java script code and would really like some help on how this can get done. Its also important to embed in the programming that if their is no numeric value to reference, then nothing get referenced. This means an empty text box. Thanks for any help.

    Im using the below script...... I'm a complete novice at this and helping a friend out with it.
    Any info is appreciated.
    aTens = [ "Twenty", "Thirty", "Forty", "Fifty", "Sixty", "Seventy", "Eighty", "Ninety"];
    aOnes = [ "Zero", "One", "Two", "Three", "Four", "Five", "Six", "Seven", "Eight", "Nine",
      "Ten", "Eleven", "Twelve", "Thirteen", "Fourteen", "Fifteen", "Sixteen", "Seventeen", "Eighteen",
      "Nineteen" ];
    function ConvertToHundreds(num)
       var cNum, nNum;
       var cWords = "";
       num %= 1000;
       if (num > 99) {
          /* Hundreds. */
          cNum = String(num);
          nNum = Number(cNum.charAt(0));
          cWords += aOnes[nNum] + " Hundred";
          num %= 100;
          if (num > 0)
             cWords += " and "
       if (num > 19) {
          /* Tens. */
          cNum = String(num);
          nNum = Number(cNum.charAt(0));
          cWords += aTens[nNum - 2];
          num %= 10;
          if (num > 0)
             cWords += "-";
       if (num > 0) {
          /* Ones and teens. */
          nNum = Math.floor(num);
          cWords += aOnes[nNum];
       return cWords;
    function ConvertToWords(num)
       var aUnits = [ "Thousand", "Million", "Billion", "Trillion", "Quadrillion" ];
       var cWords = (num >= 1 && num < 2) ? "Dollar and " : "Dollars and ";
       var nLeft = Math.floor(num);
       for (var i = 0; nLeft > 0; i++) {
           if (nLeft % 1000 > 0) {
              if (i != 0)
                 cWords = ConvertToHundreds(nLeft) + " " + aUnits[i - 1] + " " + cWords;
              else
                 cWords = ConvertToHundreds(nLeft) + " " + cWords;
           nLeft = Math.floor(nLeft / 1000);
       num = Math.round(num * 100) % 100;
       if (num > 0)
          cWords += ConvertToHundreds(num) + " Cents";
       else
          cWords += "Zero Cents";
       return cWords;
    You can use the following script for the custom calculation for the words field when the number field is named "Number":
    event.value = "";
    var f = this.getField("Number");
    if(f.valueAsString != "") {
    event.value = ConvertToWords(f.value);

  • How do you convert this code from AS3 to AS2?

    Hi,
    I created some AS3 code that is working perfectly for us.
    However now we need to convert it to AS2 so that it can be Flash
    Player 8 compatible. If it could also be compatible for Flash
    Player 7 that would be ideal but not a requirement.
    Thanks in advance.

    Are you wanting someone to do the conversion for you, or are
    you asking for general tips for doing the conversion yourself?
    i can give you tips:
    have a look at the
    ActionScript
    2.0 Migration page.
    In this you'll find the property conversions eg(going from
    AS3 to AS2). y becomes _y, height becomes _height, scaleX becomes
    _xscale, void becomes Void etc.
    you'll find that events need to be converted, eg.
    particle.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,
    animateParticle);
    becomes:
    particle.onEnterFrame=animateParticle;
    the onEnterFrame class doesn't pass an Event parameter to the
    event listener. Instead, the event listener is automatically in the
    scope of the event dispatcher, so instead of 'event.target' you
    will be able to just target 'this'.
    You'll need to use setInterval() instead of the Timer class.
    You'll need to use attachMovie() instead of
    addChild().
