Hi, I need help with a basic java assignment. The instructions are:
Create a program that reads solar energy production data for the last week from a file, gets
input for the cost of the system, and outputs production, savings, days to recoup cost and
years to recoup the cost.
Program should read in a file called “energyProduced.txt”. The contents of the file are
at the bottom of the requirements. The file should be a normal text file with no
special formatting. The file should be in the same directory as the program.
• Use a named constant for the cost of electricity at .085.
• Read in all data from the file. (refer to pages 102-103)
o Get input from the file and store production values for each in doubles.
• Get input for “Total system cost” in dollars and stored as an integer. Get input
on same line as prompt, see example.
• Output the following items per the sample below:
• Total Energy Produced in one week.
• Total Savings for one week (total production times cost for electricity)
• Total Savings per day (the average)
• Days to recoup the system cost (truncated)
o Use typecasting to integer to get rounded value
• Years to recoup the system cost (truncated)
o Use typecasting to integer to get rounded value
• Ensure columns are aligned, use escape characters to align columns.
Data for Text File (name it energyProduced.txt)
