I am doing this extra credit project and I need some help. I am trying to convert 1 billion seconds into minutes, hours, days, weeks, months and years.
I am starting with seconds to minutes and below is what I have so far but I cant get it to work... any ideas??

Code:

//SecondsToYears

[/color][/font][font=Courier New][color=#941edf]public[/color][/font][font=Courier New][color=#941edf]class[/color][/font][font=Courier New][color=#3c3c3c] SecondsToYears
{
[/color][/font][font=Courier New][color=#941edf]public[/color][/font][font=Courier New][color=#941edf]static[/color][/font][font=Courier New][color=#941edf]void[/color][/font][font=Courier New][color=#3c3c3c] main (String[] args)
{

[/color][/font][font=Courier New][color=#941edf]int[/color][/font][font=Courier New][color=#3c3c3c] sec, min, day, wks, mnths, yrs;
sec = 1000000000; [/color][/font][font=Courier New][color=#e69400]//this is how many seconds to convert
[/color][/font][font=Courier New][color=#3c3c3c]min = (sec / 60); [/color][/font][font=Courier New][color=#e69400]//first to minutes

[/color][/font][font=Courier New][color=#3c3c3c]System.out.print ([/color][/font][font=Courier New][color=#00cb00]"That's a lot of minutes "[/color][/font][font=Courier New][color=#3c3c3c] + min);


}[/color][/font][font=Courier New][color=#e69400]// eo main

[/color][/font][font=Courier New][color=#3c3c3c]}[/color][/font][font=Courier New][color=#e69400]//eo SecondsToYears [/color][/font]

update... this is what I have so far

Code:
//SecondsToYears

public class SecondsToYears
{
	public static void main (String[] args)
		{

		int sec, min, day, wks, mnths, yrs;
		sec = 1000000000; //this is how many seconds to convert
		min = (sec / 60); //first to minutes
		day = (min / 24)); //To days
		wks = (day / 52); //To Weeks
		mnths = (wks / 30); //To Months
		yrs = (mnths / 12); //To Years
	
	System.out.print ("That's a lot of minutes " + min + "to be eact");
		
	System.out.print ("That's a lot of days " + day + "to be exact");
	
	System.out.print ("That's a lot of weeks " + wks + "to be exact");
		
	System.out.print ("That's a lot of months " + mnths + "to be exact");
	
	System.out.print ("That's a lot of years " + yrs + "to be exact");

		}// eo main

}//eo SecondsToYears

YEAH it works now... a little tweak here and a little tweak there, change the wording and voila...

Code:
[size=2]/SecondsToYears

public class SecondsToYears

{

public static void main (String[] args)

{

int sec, min, day, wks, mnths, yrs;

sec = 1000000000; //this is how many seconds to convert

min = (sec / 60); //first to minutes

day = (min / 24); //To days

wks = (day / 52); //To Weeks

mnths = (wks / 30); //To Months

yrs = (mnths / 12); //To Years



System.out.println ("1 Billion Seconds is approximately " + min + " minutes");



System.out.println ("1 Billion Seconds is approximately " + day + " days");



System.out.println ("1 Billion Seconds is approximately " + wks + " weeks");



System.out.println ("1 Billion Seconds is approximately " + mnths + " months");



System.out.println ("1 Billion Seconds is approximately " + yrs + " years");

}//eo main

}//eo SecondsToYears

[/size]
