    help with program writing...

    Hello. I am starting my 7th week of an intro to programming class and have
    a problem I have been working on. My instructor said we could look for
    source code on the internet and use it as long as we tailor it to fit the
    problem at hand. I have not been able to attack this one with any kind of
    success! Does anybody know of a URL that I can get a similar source code
    for the following problem? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks.



    Create class SavingsAccount. Use static variable annualInterestR ate to
    store the annual interst rate for all account holders. Each object of the
    class contains a "private" instance variable savingsBalance indicating the
    amount the saver currently has on deposit. Provide method
    calculateMonthl yInterest to calculate the monthly interest by multiplying
    the savingsBalance by annualInterstRa te divided by 12; this interest should
    be added to savingsBalance. Provide a static method modifyInterstRa te that
    sets the annualInterstRa te to a new value. Write a program to test class
    SavingsAccount. Instantiate two savingsAccount objects, saver1 and saver2,
    with balances of $2000.00 and $3000.00, respectively. Set annualInterstRa te
    to 4%, then calculate the monthly interest and print the new balances for
    both savers. Then set the annualInterestR ate to 5%, calculate the next
    month's interest, and print the new balances for both savers.

    I know of no such resource, but my advice would be to stop wasting time
    looking for it and spend that time instead learning how to program. This is
    a simple exercise, and you'll learn a lot from doing it on your own. Also,
    please post to comp.lang.java. help in the future instead of here. Not all
    news servers carry this group. Finally, if you make an attempt at writing
    this program and get stuck along the way, you'll find the people in c.l.j.h
    more than willing to point you in the right direction. Good luck.
