I need help with my homework!

[tikney5]

I need to modify my current program so that is uses a class to store and retrieve the employees name, hourly rate, and number of hourse worked. Use a constructor to initialize the employee information, and a method within that class to calculate the weekly pay. Once stop is entered as the employee name the application should terminiate. Below is my previous code and some of what I think I need for this assignment. Any help would be great. Thanks.
[CODE=Java]
import java.util.Scann er; //program uses class Scanner

public class EmployeePayroll 2
{
//main method begins execution of Java Application
public static void main(String args[])
{
//create scanner to obtain input from command window
Scanner input= new Scanner ( System.in);


String employeeName="" ; //input employee name
double hourlyRate; //employees hourly rate
double hoursWorked; //hours worked for the week
double sum; //employees weekly pay




System.out.prin t("Enter Name of Employee:");//prompt
employeeName=in put.next();//read name from user


while (!employeeName. equals("stop")) //ends program after entering stop
{

System.out.prin t("Enter hourly rate:");//prompt
hourlyRate = input.nextDoubl e(); //read rate from user


while (hourlyRate<0.0 ) //starts while loop to be sure number entered is positive
{
System.out.prin t("Hourly rate must be a positive number. Please enter a positive hourly rate:");//prompt
hourlyRate=inpu t.nextDouble();//read first number
input.nextLine( );//prompt user for input
}//end while

System.out.prin t("Enter hours worked:");//prompt
hoursWorked = input.nextDoubl e(); //read hours worked from user


while (hoursWorked<0. 0) //Is number entered positive
{

System.out.prin t("Hours worked must be a positive number. Please enter a positive number of hours:");//prompt
hoursWorked=inp ut.nextDouble() ;//read second number
input.nextLine( );//prompt


}
sum= hourlyRate * hoursWorked; //multiply numbers

System.out.prin tf("The employee %s was paid $ %.2f this week", employeeName, sum);
//display name and sum

System.out.prin t("Enter Name of Employee-Enter stop to end:");//prompt
employeeName=in put.nextLine();//read name form user

}//end while loop



}//end method main

}//end class EmployeePayroll 2


New stuff I know it is horrible!

public class Employee
{

private String employeeName; //input employee name
private double hourlyRate;//employees hourly rate
private int hoursWorked; //employee hours worked


public Employee(String employeeName, double hourlyRate, int hoursWorked){
// constructor for an employee object
employeeName = employeeName;
hourlyRate = hourlyRate;
hoursWorked = hoursWorked;
}

public Employee(String employeeName, double hourlyRate){
// overload of the constructor to set a default 40 hour work week

}

// get methods

public String getemployeeName (){
return employeeName;
}

public int gethoursWorked( ){
return hoursWorked;
}

public double gethourlyRate() {
return hourlyRate;
}

// getter method to calculate and return the total

public double getTotal(){
return (hoursWorked * hourlyRate);
}
}[/CODE]
