I have a project to do in Visual Basic. My problem is that the outcome is always wrong (ex. instead of 2011 it gives 2000). And i cannot set as Desired unit the Inch(1) or feet(3), it gives the Infinity error. And if i put as Original and Desired unit the inch(1), the outcome is "Not a Number".
Here's the code i made so far. The project is about arrays. Any help appreciated.
Public Class Form1
Private Sub btnConvert_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnConvert.Click Dim original(9) As Long Dim desired(9) As Long Dim a As Integer Dim o As Integer Dim d As Integer Dim inch As Long, fathom As Long, furlong As Long, kilometer As Long Dim meter As Long, miles As Long, rod As Long, yard As Long, feet As Long a = Val(Input3.Text) o = Val(Input1.Text) d = Val(Input2.Text) inch& = 0.0833 rod& = 16.5 yard& = 3 furlong& = 660 meter& = 3.28155 kilometer& = 3281.5 fathom& = 6 miles& = 5280 original(1) = inch original(2) = fathom original(3) = feet original(4) = furlong original(5) = kilometer original(6) = meter original(7) = miles original(8) = rod original(9) = yard desired(1) = inch desired(2) = fathom desired(3) = feet desired(4) = furlong desired(5) = kilometer desired(6) = meter desired(7) = miles desired(8) = rod desired(9) = yard If o < 1 Or o > 9 Or d < 1 Or d > 9 Then MessageBox.Show("Units must range from 1-9.", "Error", _ MessageBoxButtons.OK, _ MessageBoxIcon.Information) Return End If Output.Text = (a * original(o)) / desired(d) End Sub
End Class
