public class TicketNumber
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
final int CHECKDIGIT = 7;
String ticketString;
int tickNum, newTickNum, lastDigit, remainder;
boolean result;
ticketString = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null,
"123454", "Ticket Number Dialog",
JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);
tickNum = Integer.parseInt(ticketString);
lastDigit = tickNum % 10; // gets last digit;
newTickNum = tickNum / 10; //removes last digit
remainder = newTickNum % CHECKDIGIT;

I get different results. Using 1253454 I get "For ticket number 123454, last digit is 4 and remainder is 4,
so result is true"

That was a mistype. I used the same number you did.
