1.16 LAB: Input and formatted output: House real estate summary Sites like Zillow get input about house prices from a database and provide nice summaries for readers. Write a program with two inputs, current price and last month's price (both integers). Then, output a summary listing the price, the change since last month, and the estimated monthly mortgage computed as (currentPrice * 0.051) / 12 (Note: Output directly. Do not store in a variable.).
Ex: If the input is:
200000 210000
the output is:
This house is $200000. The change is $-10000 since last month.
The estimated monthly mortgage is $850.0.
Note: Getting the precise spacing, punctuation, and newlines exactly right is a key point of this assignment. Such precision is an important part of programming.
import java.util.Scanner;
public class LabProgram {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner scnr = new Scanner(System.in);
int currentPrice;
int lastMonthsPrice;
currentPrice = scnr.nextInt();
lastMonthsPrice = scnr.nextInt();
/* Type your code here. */
}

In the code, a class "LabProgram" is defined, and inside the main method two integer variable "currentPrice and lastMonthsPrice" is defined that uses the scanner class object is used for a user input value, and in the next step, two print method is declared that print the calculate of the integer variable.

The program is an illustration of output formats in Java

The statements that complete the program are:

System.out.printf("This house is $%d. The change is $%d since last month.\n",currentPrice,(currentPrice - lastMonthsPrice));
System.out.printf("The estimated monthly mortgage is $%.1f.\n",(currentPrice * 0.051)/12);

To format outputs in Java programming language, we make use of the printf statement, followed by the string literal that formats the required output

Take for instance:

To output a float value to 2 decimal place, we make use of the literal "%.2f"
