I have a working problem, but still need some help

Question

import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
class testing
  public static void main(String args[])
    int firstNum = 0, secondNum = 0;
    int evensTotal = 0, oddsTotal = 0;
    while(firstNum >= secondNum)
      int num = Integer.parseInt(JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter a number"));
      if(firstNum == 0) firstNum = num;
      else secondNum = num;
    for(int i = firstNum; i <= secondNum; i++)
      if(i % 2 == 0) evensTotal += i;
      else
        System.out.println("odd number = " + i);
    System.out.println("Even numbers total = " + evensTotal);
    for(int i=firstNum; i<= secondNum; i++)
  if( i % 2 == 0 ) evensTotal=i;
     System.out.println(i+" squared is " + (i*i) );
      for(int i = firstNum; i <= 10; i++)
          if(i % 2 == 0) evensTotal += i;
      else
              oddsTotal += i*i;
    System.out.println("Odd numbers(squared) total = " + oddsTotal);
    System.exit(0);
}I have everything I need, but I don't want it to display the even numbers squared. I want it to display the odd numbers squared. And also at the end I need to Output all of the uppercase letters. Any ideas of what that means or how to go about it??
By the way. The program outputs the following when I use firstNum=1 and secondNum=13:
odd number = 1
odd number = 3
odd number = 5
odd number = 7
odd number = 9
odd number = 11
odd number = 13
Even numbers total = 42
2 squared is 4
4 squared is 16
6 squared is 36
8 squared is 64
10 squared is 100
Odd numbers(squared) total = 165

Answer 1

import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
class testing
  public static void main(String args[])
    int firstNum = 0, secondNum = 0;
    int evensTotal = 0, oddsTotal = 0;
    while(firstNum >= secondNum)
      int num = Integer.parseInt(JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter a number"));
      if(firstNum == 0) firstNum = num;
      else secondNum = num;
    for(int i = firstNum; i <= secondNum; i++)
      if(i % 2 == 0) evensTotal += i;
      else
        System.out.println("odd number = " + i);
    System.out.println("Even numbers total = " + evensTotal);
    for(int i=firstNum; i<= 10; i++)
  if( i % 2 == 0 ) evensTotal+=i;
  else
     System.out.println(i+" squared is " + (i*i) );
      for(int i = firstNum; i <= 10; i++)
          if(i % 2 == 0) evensTotal += i;
      else
              oddsTotal += i*i;
    System.out.println("Odd numbers(squared) total = " + oddsTotal);
    System.exit(0);
}Ok. I figured out how to display the odd numbers squared. I was forgetting to place the else after the if statement. But I still don't understand what my teacher could be talking about when she says "the last step is to output all the uppercase letters"
Any help here? It makes no sense to me. It's all numbers. How could I output any uppercase letters?
