The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

help with java swing components

Asked by jumbojs in New to Java Programming, Java Programming Language, Java AWT & Swing

Tags: ,

I started this program for a class and I've gotten pretty far but I am now stuck. What this program is supposed to do is be a tabbed pane where tab pool and spa take info from the user and display an area, and then the third tab(yet to be added) takes customer info and stores it in a database. The problem I am having is trying to take integers from the text fields, multiply them, and then display them as a label. I was going to use the JFormattedTextField but then how do you get that value back to use as a label?Start Free Trial
